Honest, insightful, funny – a brilliant memoir about writing and teaching and life from one of Australia’s most loved children’s authors.

Sometimes, rather than making you laugh or cry out in surprise, a story will instead leave you wondering about human fragility …

In the telling of his own tale, children’s author and screenwriter Paul Jennings demonstrates how seemingly small events can combine into a compelling drama. As if assembling the pieces of a jigsaw puzzle, he puts together fragments, memories and anecdotes to reveal the portrait of a complex and weathered soul.

Untwisted is revealing, moving and very funny.
