At the Margaret River launch Rossiter will explore the real and imagined elements of his artist journey. Respected Margaret River artist Caroline Juniper captures the spirit of the place with her artwork which graces the cover of the novel. Creating the cover was a trip down memory lane for Juniper. "I was taken back to my childhood down Juniper Road, at the coast, gathering abalone from the rocks and keeping my father company while he fished nearby for herring," she said. "My father's spirit is here, always and forever." Refuge will be launched at the Margaret River Bookshop on Sunday July 14 from 4.30pm. The event is free, bookings via [email protected] or phone 08 9757 3331.
