Rough and raw 1980s West Heidelberg was not a place for the faint-hearted. But it was the right time and the right place for a kid who became the writer known as Wisp.
Graffiti was an adventure. Creative freedom meant stealthy late-night missions, escaping street gangs and keeping a step ahead of the law.

ONE GOOD TURN is the first Mary Leunig book in almost 25 years, bringing one of Australia's most incisive artists and social commentators back to the fore. In these never-before-seen drawings, Leunig's focus on politics, family, class, power, violence, trauma, humour, domesticity, labour, and the experience of being a woman in the world is as deeply relevant as ever. This book attests to how desperately we need Mary Leunig - perhaps more now than ever.
