Join us for another Mannheim Book Club event! Read the book and come talk to our super interesting and diverse group of people about what was interesting/ different/ thought-provoking/ infuriating/ blah/ absolutely wonderful about it! :) Our Jan read is an anthology of Australian First Nations speculative fiction short stories, **This All Come Back Now, (edited) by Mykaela Saunders.**

The first-ever anthology of Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander speculative fiction – the narrative exploration of “what-ifs,” the creative probing into latent possibilities, the imaginary voyaging into potential futures.

It's written, curated, edited and designed by blackfellas, for blackfellas and about blackfellas. In these stories, ‘this all come back’: all those things that have been taken from us, that we collectively mourn the loss of, or attempt to recover and revive, as well as those that we thought we’d gotten rid of, that are always returning to haunt and hound us. Some writers summon ancestral spirits from the past, while others look straight down the barrel of potential futures, which always end up curving back around to hold us from behind.

Dazzling, imaginative and unsettling, *This All Come Back* Now centres and celebrates communities and culture. It’s a love letter to kin and country, to memory and future-thinking.

*Book discussion to be facilitated by Reggie.*
