Squatter's Gold by Timothy A Brown

Squatter's Gold by Timothy A Brown

A dozen Australian authors were tasked with writing a short story that revolved around the many and varied meanings of the word 'obliquity'.

What is obliquity?

OBLIQUITY DEFINITION
1. deviation from moral rectitude or sound thinking
2. deviation from parallelism or perpendicularity
3. indirectness or deliberate obscurity of speech or conduct,
an obscure or confusing statement

Seventeen short stories have been brought together, connected by an interpretation of a single word. Some writers saw humour, others saw drama. Some entered worlds of fantasy while others delved into the psyche.From the criminal mind to the light of heart, all of these stories are entertaining.
