When her mother dies, Dylan struggles to find her identity. An outback road-trip with her mum’s grieving boyfriend sees an unlikely bond develop. But it won’t last…
Dylan dreams of sailing across the ocean to France with her mother. Paris, Dylan imagines, is a place where her black skin won’t make her stand out, a place where she might feel she belongs.
When she loses her mother in a freak accident, Dylan finds herself on a very different journey: a road trip across the Australian outback in the care of her mother’s grieving boyfriend, Pat. As they pass through remote towns further and further from the water Dylan longs for, she and Pat form an unlikely bond: a bond that will be broken when Pat leaves Dylan with a family she has never known.
Metal Fish, Falling Snow is about a young girl’s search for an identity as she navigates unthinkable grief. A warm, funny, and original look at families lost and found, this Own Voices novel celebrates the resilience of the human heart and the meaning of home.

'Breathtaking.one of the most moving books I've read in ages.' Vikki Wakefield 'Full of spark and humour, and each page is imbued with striking and unforgettable imagery.This is a novel for both young and old; a brilliant and heartfelt work of Australian fiction.' Stella Prize Judges' Report 'A whirling, raging, intense portrait of a teen who experiences the world in ways that she struggles to communicate to others.Layers of ideas about race, identity, grief and family run through this book, but the focus never wavers from Dylan's funny and profound voice. This is a really moving, original and thought-provoking novel.' Readings 'A brilliant debut.the novel stares back at the White gaze and demands that it set aside its entitlement and its self-imposed authority.Metal Fish, Falling Snow carries the pain of loss, the nuances of race and the longing for family, and interprets the world anew with immense literary skill and just a little bit of magic.'
