We Are the Stars
We Are the Stars: A misfit's story of love, connection and the glorious power of letting go | Gina Chick
1 post | 1 read
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 read. From day one of her wildly unconventional childhood, Gina Chick blazed her own trail, which led her to dance through the hidden world of 90s 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 youre 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. Youve never read anything like it.

This is an unusual choice of book for me. I didn‘t know anything about Gina Chick before I bought it. But this memoir just kept jumping onto my radar from a bunch of diverse places. It was calling to me.
And “Wow!” 🤩 I loved it 💖
What a fascinating, awesome woman. As the saying goes, ‘It takes all sorts to make a world‘. And the world is better for having Gina in it.

Eva_B I‘ve seen her on ‘Great Australian Walks‘ on SBS. Really good show 3w
