On this street, everyone comes from different places, but to find peace they will have to discover what unites them.
Critic reviews
"Living on Hope Street is a big-hearted, compassionate work. Divaroren is a ferociously good storyteller and every character breathes life, every character convinces." (Christos Tsiolkas, award-winning author of The Slap)
"Living on Hope Street is all about diversity, stereotypes, friendships across cultures, about what is happening behind doors that is being 'seen' but people are choosing to ignore. A voice has been given to the Australian people from many cultures, both those misunderstood and those accepted. I without a doubt recommend this book... Congratulations to the author Demet Divaroren for writing what is bound to be a much loved piece of fiction." (Little Big Reads)
