Before the fire - before the front of flames roars over the hills - the ridge is thick with gums. After the fire, all the birds have gone. There is only ash and melted metal, the blackened husks of cars. And the lost people: on the TV news in borrowed clothes, in temporary accommodation on the outskirts of the city, or remembered in small offerings outside the town hall. A Constant Hum grapples with the aftermath of a devastating bushfire with an eye for telling detail. Some of these stories cut to the bone; others are empathetic stories of survival and hope.
