1 y separately published work icon The Edge of Limits : If Not Me, Who? If Not Now, When? Susanne Gervay , Bondi : Flying Elephant Media , 2022 25698923 2022 single work novel young adult “When Sam, 17, treks into the wilderness on the school survival camp, he misses his girlfriend, Laura with her belly-button ring. The gruelling physical challenges are hard, sometime hilarious, sometimes cruel as he treks deeper into unknown territory forced to confront the underbelly of real mateship, sexual consent and the dangers of guys like Watts. Ultimately, the camp winds to the final place of initiation, to the edge of limits, where Sam must choose for what he stands for. This is a journey from the city culture of beach parties, girlfriends, sex and consent, to the vast wilds of trekking, abseiling, rock climbing, white-water rafting, sweaty days and freezing nights.”--Back cover.

'Tessa is a first-generation Greek teenager growing up in Sydney. Her migrant parents are as strict as their parents before them, but this is 1970s Australia and it is hard for a young girl to be left out of all the social contacts of her peers and conform to a rigidly sexist code of behaviour. University brings relative freedom, but when Tessa falls in love with her English professor and rebels against an arranged marriage, the going gets tough.'
