In his assured debut collection of short stories, award-winning author Venero Armanno takes the reader around the world: in Melbourne, a man in a love triangle is excited about his 'personal computer system'; an ex-husband returns reluctantly to Sicily after ten years when his ex-wife falls off a ladder; a couple have an affair in snowy Holland; and a painter recounts a story about East Berlin, before the wall came down, because everyone has a story...

First published in 1992, Jumping at the Moon was joint runner-up in the Steele Rudd Award. The collection launched Venero Armanno's literary career, leading to an agent, two novels released in quick succession and, subsequently, international publication.

Venero Armanno

VENERO (Veny) ARMANNO was born in Brisbane to Sicilian migrant parents. He is the author of two books of short stories and nine critically acclaimed novels.

His book Firehead was shortlisted in the 1999 Queensland Premiers Literary Award for Best Novel of the Year and The Volcano won that award in 2002. The Volcano was also shortlisted for the Courier Mail Best Book of the Year. Further back in time, My Beautiful Friend was runner-up as the Aurealis Best Horror Novel in 1996, and Jumping at the Moon was equal runner-up in the 1993 Steele Rudd Award for Best Short Story collection.

Veny’s 2007 novel, The Dirty Beat, was described as “a lovely rocking rolling swoop of a novel” (Good Reading), “bold, original and moving” (The Age), and full of “the unmistakable beat of a passionate humanity” (The Canberra Times). Then in 2012 Black Mountain was published to national critical acclaim.

His books have been published in USA, France, Germany, Switzerland, Austria, Holland, Israel and South Korea. He has travelled widely and lived for a year and a half in Paris.
