This novel is a seminal literary text and a cult classic. Mary Fallon not only broke open the traditional novel format by using new narrative techniques but also proved to be one of the first Australian novelists who experimented with stories of sexuality in women's lives. Written in a witty, whimsical and edgy contemporary voice, 'Working Hot' begins with the exploration of a lesbian love affair, and then speaks more broadly of female sexuality, questioning stereotypes and myths along the way.
