Under this sky was born famous writer Helen Garner.

From the beginning of her writing career, she was regarded as a stylist and a feminist. She came to prominence at a time when Australian women writers were considered a novelty. Her novels are never entirely fiction and her non-fiction is never only about crime. In her 2014 book This House of Grief, an Australian writer documented Farquharson’s trial and subsequent conviction, writing dissections of an author’s own thoughts, and ours as well. HELEN GARNER was born in Geelong (Victoria) into a November day, 1942. She is an Australian novelist and journalist. Her’s first novel was published in 1977. She is known adapting her personal experiences in her fiction (such as into The Spare Room).

The Spare Room, is told from the perspective of a woman who lives in Melbourne. A friend, who is ill with bowel cancer, comes to stay with her. She is suspicious of the treatment. She becomes increasingly angry with her friend for denying the seriousness of her illness. At the end of the novel, her friend Nicola returns to mainstream oncology treatment, and the doctors find that some of her symptoms are due to cancer having destroyed part of her vertebrae. The Spare Room it’s closer to a piece of journalism, highly never focused on Nicola’s interior experience.
