Making Tracks (UTS Writers’ Anthology: Making Tracks, ABC Books, $24.95 pb, 186 pp) is the latest collection of poems, short stories and experimental prose by students in the prestigious writing courses at the University of Technology, Sydney. The anthology covers the themes of loss, love and self-discovery, often confronting the writers’ personal experiences from childhood and adolescence. These are tales of spiritual and actual travel within Australia and abroad, of rites of passage and of quests for identity.
