How she came to be there, in the first place, it is hard to think. Because of the family who asked for a ride home from the football?

How she came to be there, in the first place, it is hard to think. Because of the family who asked for a ride home from the football? Because of the song of the old lady who rocked to and fro on the back seat of the car that night? Or was it the sleeping child, eyes opening now and then like pools of ink? Time has turned on its head in this otherworld, or slowed like it might in some kind of myth or fairytale. Or is it that time no longer holds weight or meaning? When Amber returns to her home in the Australian desert, her hope is to move on from her grief, to start again. Invited to work in a remote Aboriginal community, she sets off on a three-day trip on unsealed roads that link a constellation of communities, roads that promise purpose but soon sweep her off track, steering her backwards and forwards in time, in search of her landmarks and bearings. Return to Dust is a tale of bereavement, of recovering lost things and finding our place.
