"About my first memory, sitting on the shoulders……" — Melina Marchetta

"About my first memory, sitting on the shoulders of a giant who I know can only be my father. Of touching the sky. Of lying between two people who read me stories of wild things and journeys with dragons, the soft hum of their voices speaking of love and serenity. See, I remember love."

— Melina Marchetta
