‘Unlike anything I have ever read before. I can't wait to give this book to everyone I love. Read it.' HUGH JACKMAN

Gina Chick, the inaugural winner of Alone Australia, tells the story of her extraordinary, indomitable life in one of the most powerful, moving memoirs you will ever listen to.

From day one of her wildly unconventional childhood, Gina Chick blazed her own trail, which led her to dance through the hidden world of 90's Sydney nightlife into the arms of a conman. She fled to the wilderness to find healing, began a wondrous love affair with the deepest lessons life—and death—can offer, and found that all the answers are written in the wisdom of the body and the whirling silence of stars.

If you're ready to get lost in jungles, wander into wolf-dens, sing with storms, rescue orphaned animals, dive to the depths, dance 'til your knees wobble, fall in love, find yourself by losing it all, and most of all be real; this book is for you.

We Are the Stars is a magic carpet ride through the exquisite mystery of the human heart. You've never listened to anything like it.

"I am a storm wrapped in skin", writes Gina Chick in this book full of bliss, sorrow, earth and stars. I love Gina's courage, her strength and her joy. Above all I admire the life force that guides her through the worst of times to emerge on the other side of that dark river with a truly rare perspicacity. A wild, creaturely memoir that shows us how to really live.' CHARLOTTE WOOD, author of Stone Yard Devotional

'Want to know what it's like to spend time with someone so funny and wise and so brutally honest that your jaw is permanently on the floor and your heart is singing? This memoir quite simply broke me open. Her powerful poetic mixture of truth, humour, hard-fought wisdom and unblinking authenticity radiates from every page. From the first paragraph it dawned on me that this is unlike anything I have ever read before. I can't wait to give this book to everyone I love. Read it.' HUGH JACKMAN

‘Gina's eyes are wolf, her limbs the trees, her heart a moon, her mind the sea. We Are the Stars is an exhilarating story of a life uncontained and it will travel with me forever … an excellent manual for making a friend of life's intrepid roads and the wisdom that ensues. Let her words churn you up and inspire you to admire your deepest sorrows, laugh when you shouldn't and above all, make a god of curiosity.' POH LING YEOW

There's nobody like Gina Chick and this book pulses with her intelligence, authenticity and vulnerability, but most of all, with her passionate love of life.' LEIGH SALES, author of Any Ordinary Day

‘We Are the Stars is as much a force of nature as Gina Chick herself. In staring unflinchingly into the cruellest of losses, this book is wise, fierce and unexpectedly life-affirming.' BENJAMIN LAW, author of The Family Law

‘YES is the clarion call, the anthem, the bass drumbeat that infuses this insistently joyous memoir. She sings, she dances, she embraces it all - every scrap of grass, every mote of dust, every death, every rebirth, every heartbreak, and every single joy. She notices with wide-seeing eyes, and she celebrates with a wide-open heart. We Are The Stars roars with lif
