Fathers and daughters

Canberra based writer John Clanchy has written five stories looking at father-daughter relationships from different perspectives.

He feels it's a complex family dynamic that has been rarely explored in fiction.

His stories take the point of view of a range of ages and stages, including
a 17-year-old girl, an old man, a stepfather and a father who hasn't seen his daughter since she was four.
