Book description
Here, in an anthology as strong as collection drawn from far and wide, are thirty fantastic stories from Monash University students. All of them are on the verge: of illumination; of wonder; of love; of understanding; of adulthood; of death; and sometimes, of the ridiculous.

About the author
Travis De Valle received his 'pen-license' at the impressionable age of eight, and has always harboured a passion for writing. He wishes he could better express the wealth of knowledge and experience that he has gained as an editor of Verge, and would like to thank all those involved for their unwavering commitment to its production.
Michelle O'Toole, before studying Creative Writing at Monash University, did a lot of journal writing. She admires the work of Margaret Atwood and Michael Ondaatje, although her writing is equally inspired by everyday happenings. Michele hopes that one day she will capture emotion in words the way Gary Moore expresses it with guitar.
Laura Kerton is currently studying third year arts, majoring in English and Classical Studies. She has a penchant for tragic endings and a continuing love affair with London.
