More DescriptionTold in a candid narrative voice, Close To The Bone is the story of a karmic disturbance. The fallout from an aboriginal curse, unleashed beside my mother when she was only twenty with me still curled up tight in her belly.Warped by the death of the Aboriginal girl and her child who died along side in the tiny bush hospital, my fate, and that of my family has been shaken and knocked about by the shock waves, the beauty and the pain of that love magic settling down on all of us...or so it seems.
