Product Information

"A powerhouse story, a powerhouse voice, that wrestles with intragenerational fractures and complicated entanglements. At the center of the book is an obsessive kind of love, a love that gives but also takes, but a love that only forms from bonds forged in fire."--Weike Wang, award-winning author of Joan Is Okay and Chemistry From one of Australia's most celebrated authors comes a powerful mother-daughter drama that explores the fault lines between love and control--My Year of Rest and Relaxation meets Freshwater. Sixteen and pregnant, Karuna finds herself trapped in her mother's Melbourne public housing apartment for one hundred days, awaiting the birth of her child--and her mother's next move in a shocking power struggle over who will raise the baby. She writes to her unborn child, so there's a record of what really happened. Karuna's pregnancy is the result of a heady whirlwind of independence, lust, and defiance--but it wasn't entirely by accident, either. Karuna's mother, already overprotective, confines her to keep her safe from the outside world--and make sure she can't get into any more trouble. Stuck inside for endless hours, Karuna battles her mother and herself for a sense of power in her own life, as a new life forms and grows within her. As the due date nears, the question of who will get to raise the baby festers between them. At times tense and unnerving, One Hundred Days nevertheless brims with humor and warmth. Alice Pung's authorial voice is crisp and relatable, channeling the angst of youth with grace. This realistic coming-of-age fiction book set in Melbourne's public housing will captivate readers with its psychological drama and exploration of motherhood, poverty, and power struggles.

Reviews
"A glorious song of a novel [that] can be savoured by young and old ... Pung changes our perceptions and sympathies, building characters with depth and complexity... At its core, this is an uplifting story of a woman defining her own life, knowing that she will give her child the freedom to do the same." -- The Saturday Paper (Australia) "A legit masterpiece. Funny in all the right places, sob-inducing at the end." -- Benjamin Law, author of The Family Law and Gaysia: Adventures in the Queer East "At the core of Pung's work is a fearless emotional honesty and unapologetic exploration of what it means to be human." -- SBS Voices (Australia) "One Hundred Days tells a story about growing up, discovering the difference between love and control, and taking responsibility. I loved the details: they spoke of a whole world. How I admired this young, determined protagonist. The book is wonderful; I read it all in one sitting." -- Sofie Laguna, author of One Foot Wrong, The Eye of the Sheep, The Choke, and Infinite Splendours "Stunning.... One Hundred Days is Pung's best work so far, but know that it will break your heart ... It's here to challenge our perceptions of love, family and culture. It's here to pull on our heartstrings and have us turn each page faster and faster, desperate to know the ending." -- Arts Hub (Australia) "One Hundred Days is the tale of mothers and daughters the world over - the relationships we navigate, the weight of our histories, and how, no matter the fractures life throws between us, our daughters will always hum us home. Pung's characters are so real, I could feel them in the room. There is no word out of place, no sentence that doesn't sing with poetry. This is truly fiction at its fiercest. It is a masterpiece, a triumph - Pung's greatest work yet." -- Maxime Beniba Clark, author of Foreign Soil and The Hate Race "One Hundred Days is, at heart, a deeply hopeful novel." -- Kill Your Darlings (Australia) "What is astounding about One Hundred Days is that, while fearlessly honest about the damage family members can inflict on one another, it is also full of forgiveness and harmony and grace. Pung's discernment and command as a writer is astonishing, elating. I adore this book." -- Christos Tsioklas, author of Damascus, Merciless Gods, and The Slap "One Hundred Days can be an uncomfortable read...but Pung's writing is also infused with humour, warmth and an understanding of what it is to be both mother and daughter." -- Australian Book Review "I devoured this book - a beautiful, funny, rude, deeply moving story." -- Virginia Trioli, author of Generation F "A deceptively simple plot under which bubbles the latent power of raw emotional need and complicated love. Pung's writing is liltingly lovely; every word careful and considered." -- Reading Monthly (Australia) "Written with Pung's characteristic verve and attention to detail and dialogue...it offers provocative treatment of the dynamics of control and uneasy acquiescence, of the working-class poor, of cross-cultural relationships, teen pregnancy and second-generation migrants." -- The Age (Australia) "A thoughtful, finely observed book" -- The West Australian "A compelling portrayal of the teetering movement from girl to woman ... A modern fairytale for and about those who live in housing commission flats, for those who don't feel they are worth anything, those who feel like they don't count." -- Sydney Review of Books (Australia), "One Hundred Days is the tale of mothers and daughters the world over - the relationships we navigate, the weight of our histories, and how, no matter the fractures life throws between us, our daughters will always hum us home. Pung''s characters are so real, I could feel them in the room. There is no word out of place, no sentence that doesn''t sing with poetry. This is truly fiction at its fiercest.

This is a comic book size booklet with no real information in it. Looks like it was written by a high school student. Terribly useless.

I realize that shipments to Canada often take longer. I once read on a menu that "good food takes time to prepare." This CD was well worth the wait. Excellent transaction and I would do business again with this seller.
