Song of the Slums – Final cover

Front cover

There it is! Cathy Larsen’s wonderful cover … created with heroic commitment to art, because when they were doing the photoshoot, they had to get down on hands and knees in a Melbourne alley to scoop up dirty water from a puddle and spread it all around – that’s why the alley looks wet!
The main new feature is the very generous quote from Kate Forsyth – and there’s also a longer quote from Kate on the back cover.

Back cover

How the alley looks before Astor and Verrol start running down it!
