Humpty Doom — Liss Fenwick. Published by Bad News Books.
Drawing together images from her childhood and present day in the (almost) eponymous town of Humpty Doo, Fenwick mines crisscrossing timelines to examine this rural Australian town, her white colonial settler heritage, and the gaps that are created by looking at things head on. This book is also a love letter of sorts to the messy and conflicting stories of contemporary Australia.
