Book excerpt: In her award-winning debut, Sally Finn is concerned with the big picture beyond the constructs of plot and character. She questions life, the nature and meaning of it, the undercurrents of relationships and how we are shaped as people through these relationships and our past experiences. Fine Salt has all the restless energy and the unpredicability of the open sea. 'Raw, vital and refreshingly unsentimental. Welcome to a fiercely independent voice on the literary scene.' - Robert Drewe 'Sometimes a city-the world-seems too small for human passion. Fine Salt felt that way. Melbourne's bay, the cool spaces of Gippsland down the other direction, the St Kilda foreshore, places in Fitzroy-for me, Sally Finn's characters inhabit them already. How is it they don't know what awaits them, these fated and yet free movers? Perhaps it's the mingling of uncertainty and desire as they circle their Melbourne, borne on the tides of a vigorous narrative. Sally Finn is a riveting story-teller, with the gift of fleshing out lives in flux. - Judith Rodriguez
