The Butterfly Bush

THE BUTTERFLY BUSH Jenevieve Johnson. Tulip is barely a town, hidden by exploited Tasmanian bushland and remnant rainforest. It sits on sinkholes and old mine shafts, remnant of a more affluent mining era. The few residents are loyal and stoic, and there are occasional newcomers escaping their past, like Bridget, Anton and Useful. This story is mostly about Bridget and her approach to achieving happiness after tragedy. There are also slapstick characters you'd like to take home, for a bit. There are high rolling adventures and sunny days. Deep love. And Wendy always corks it. 'You've got to have shit happen. Because it's that shit that shows you how good life is without it'.
