HOME explores notions of home from a range of young people's perspectives, both in the physical and emotional senses, examining with humour and passion themes of place, belonging and prejudice. THE BRIDGE tells the story of Aaron, a young man deeply affected by the death of his friend, a young man at risk. He and his family are struggling to come to terms with the impact of guilt and self-doubt and the isolation of rural lives and the pressures of adolescence. THE YUM YUM ROOM was commissioned by The City of Mount Gambier as a response to high rates of youth suicide in the region. Honest, moving and intimate, this country town story goes straight to the heart and reflects all the paradoxical complexities of living in the here and now. CROWDED HOUSE is set in the future when times are troubled. The cities are crowded places where work, food and shelter are hard to find and the streets are patrolled by sweepers, whose purpose is to eliminate the young.

San Miguel de Allende is an exquisitely beautiful, well-preserved Spanish colonial town. This charming 480-year-old city, considered to be one of the most picturesque towns in Mexico, sits at an elevation of 6,400 feet on a vast plateau of rolling hills in the Sierra Madre mountain range. The rhythms of day and night in San Miguel are modulated by the deeply resonant sounds of church bells as they ring out the quarter hoursconnecting everyone into the web of humanity that occupies this beautiful town. Over 700 images in this reasonably priced coffee-table book lovingly capture these and other scenes that embody the charm and life of this thriving town. All of San Miguel's 17th-century architecture, people, festivals, and culture are shown.
