-
“A country wedding” was the scene I ultimately tried to recreate on the cover of Bridie’s The Way Things Should Be. Coloured confetti on the bright green pastures of the NSW outback. I wanted to accentuate the warm, light-hearted nature of this novel, along with its intricate complexities of modern family life.
