Jetty Road is an amusing and insightful novel about women of a certain age, kids and oldies – about life
actually, and how we never really grow into it. The story explores the intertwined lives
of two sisters, Evie and Paula Haggerty. Damaged by their early life experiences – Evie’s past drug
habit and the collapse of Paula’s long-term relationship – the sisters depend on one another to stand
strong against the challenges of mid life, and together face difficult decisions that must be made.
‘Beautifully written, thoroughly engaging and elegantly framed by a critical intelligence that
wears its own convictions lightly but without apology.’ – Michele Grossman
