Labour of love

Karuna’s mother, and as the oldest child I had a lot of adult responsibilities. I was always anxious and on edge,” she says. “I had babies to look after and no idea how.”

Now a mother of three, Pung also works as a public service lawyer based at the University of Melbourne in Parkville, with her husband Nick.

She writes in her spare time.

“When I am living life, that’s when I can write,” Pung says. “I have always written with kids and siblings around me. It’s a tricky balance, but you need many daydreaming hours to plot a book. That’s happened when I have been breastfeeding at 3am and nobody wants to go to sleep.”

One Hundred Days, for all its serious undertones, comes with plenty of humour. There’s Karuna’s friend Tweezer [that’s Teresa], a Greek schoolgirl raised by a strict family whose closest brush with freedom is dreaming about it.

“I didn’t want to write a didactic book about Australian multicultralism. My characters’ cultural aspects aren’t quirks, they integrate as part of their day-to-day life,” Pung says. “With Tweezer, it’s not that she’s Greek, it’s more that she’s anxious about everything, but her Greek background plays a part because her parents are fearful new migrants and highly religious. I try to make the characters as threedimensional as I can so they didn’t end up as stereotypes.”

It has been 12 years since Growing up Asian in Australia was released.

It included stories of prominent people such as Kylie Kwong, Anh Do and Jenny Kee, who opened up to Pung about their experiences.

“Times are definitely changing,” Pung says. “The generation after me, they know their rights, identify as people of colour, know when racism happens.” ●

Alice Pung has delivered a powerful new novel inspired by friends’ teen pregnancies.

hen acclaimed Melbourne author Alice Pung started writing her latest novel, One Hundred Days, she turned to a series of events from her Braybrook high school to set the scene.

“A few of my friends disappeared and I never saw them again. Turns out those girls were taken out of school to have babies and told they could only have the baby if it was raised as their sister,” she says. “It used to happen a lot in the ’80s, and it’s not that long ago. The girl was told it was so she could have a life, and not have the stigma of being a teenage mum. It formed the inspiration for this book.”

The award-winning writer of Growing up Asian in Australia and bestselling memoirs Unpolished Gem and Her Father’s Daughter tells the story of 16-year-old Karuna who becomes pregnant and is confined to a housing commission flat – all in the name of family dignity.

Pung explores the flaws and deep love between a mother and daughter; where one’s fight for independence is fiercely challenged. One Hundred Days is about complex love and maternal bonds, where staunch protectionism is presented as anything but and where cultural stigma, generational clashing and a coming-of-age story unlock deep fears on both sides of this tug of war.

Pung channelled her nine-year-old self into the storyline, too. As the eldest in her family, she took on the responsibility of raising her siblings while her mother worked.

COVER STORY

Collingwood player Brodie Grundy turned the isolation of last year’s AFL hub in Queensland into an opportunity to take a new direction.

I

t was a family trip to the Northern Territory that helped Brodie Grundy, Collingwood’s star ruckman and two-time best and fairest winner, see things differently.

“I learned a lot about myself last year; it was a challenging one for footy and for me personally,” says Grundy, 27. “I wasn’t playing at the level people had come to expect of me, or that I had come to expect of myself. Once the season ended, I knew I had to centre myself again.”

Grundy, who lives in Alphington with his partner Rachel – who works as a physiotherapist at the Northern Hospital – says a trip to Uluru this year was a release that worked on many levels.

“I rang Mum and we hit the road,” Grundy says.

“It was the best thing I could have done. To reconnect with nature and gain some perspective.”

In light of Collingwood’s Do Better report released last December last year, and feeling the pressure that his club was under to report structural racism, Grundy turned to family.

“We have a young playing group at Collingwood who want to do better and be involved in having meaningful change,” he explains. “We want to be part of an organisation and industry that is bestpractice and a safe place regardless of your race, religion, sex. We want this workplace to be a really fun, inclusive environment.”

But he is the first to admit that starting a career in AFL is not for the faint-hearted.

“I know when I started it could be really intimidating for a young person, so you want it to be as inclusive as possible, because that’s when you get the best out of people,” he says.

“We see it [racism] and we have to now keep ourselves and the club accountable to these things.

“People often misconstrue me as a serious bloke because I go to university, but we’ve all gotten up to mischief when we were younger and enjoyed being more relaxed. It’s knowing the values of the club and holding one another to account.”

Away from AFL, Grundy has spent the past seven years undertaking a Bachelor of Health Sciences at La Trobe University.

“My philosophy has always been that I am more than a footballer,” Grundy says. “I have always been a curious person – keen to push myself when it comes to learning.”

He momentarily entertained the idea of becoming a landscape architect when he was in year 11, but stuck with footy instead. An interest in anatomy and physics led to his degree choice.

“I always ask myself what am I interested in?

Where can I have impact? I know I have an extraordinary platform to use my voice now, and being an AFL footballer and combining this with real-life experiences is where I want to get to,” Grundy says.

find happiness with family and friends again has been a good thing,” Grundy says.

“And in a world filled with so much negative stuff and still so much uncertainty, I’ve learned to take life in my stride and not worry about things I can’t control.”

Grundy is also a newly-appointed ambassador with Wolf Blass, which felt like a natural coming together for the sportsman.

“I don’t drink all the time because I’m a professional athlete, but when I do I want something that’s quality and good for a celebratory moment with family and friends,” he says.

Grundy first moved to Melbourne from the Adelaide Hills when drafted to play for Collingwood as an 18-year-old. He moved in with his aunt in Alphington, and a few years later purchased his first home in the area. He lives there with Rachel and their two dogs, Ava and Sam. “I really like the area because it’s close enough to

“I learned a lot about myself last year; it was a challenging one for footy and for me personally.”

Now he’s busy undertaking an MBA at Melbourne Business School, plotting a future beyond the field.

“Being in the hub environment really challenges your identity,” Grundy says of his months on the Gold Coast last year. “It’s in part due to the fact we don’t have any releases away from the sport.”

He took the hub experience in his stride and learned to surf, but spent most hours in his room wishing he was home.

“I don’t play video games,” he says. “When I was out of the hub, I was surfing. And when I was back in the room, I was pretty flat, not having much to sink my teeth into. That’s when I had the idea to take my degree down a business path.”

Being back on campus this year has done wonders for his wellbeing. “To be on campus and

the city but it’s not right in the hustle and bustle,” he says. “But I’d love to get a bit closer to nature with a big backyard, have somewhere to retreat without seeing other houses.”

His home is filled with pop-art prints, while a canvas he painted with an artist friend sits in the entrance. A few other precious items on display include an Indigenous Round 1 football and an All-Stars State of Origin one as well.

He’s got a passion for indoor plants and cosy rugs, and says his knack for home decorating comes from his mother.

“I love a place that’s comfy and warm,” Grundy says. “Rachel leaves the decorating up to me, funnily enough. I like earthy and natural tones and like to check on my plants every day and see what’s grown and have a chat to them.” ●

Preserving our past

DAVID WADELTON

rtist David Wadelton began photographing the small businesses of Northcote in the mid-1970s when he was at art school.

Nearly 40 years later, sorting through and scanning his black-and-white photos, thinking about what the suburban Melbourne streetscape was like in those days, he “realised there were a few survivors, but not many”.

The high streets were no longer peppered with small, family-run tailors, butchers and milk bars. But there were some outliers.

So he started documenting what was left of those businesses before they, too, disappeared. He shared the

“These small businesses are relics of something … they’re part of the fabric of our local communities.” images – old and new – on social media, eventually compiling some into his book Small Business.

Wadelton found people connected with the images, recognising the shops they’d visited or walked or driven past for so many years.

“We’re interested in this shared history, the often unique history of our local areas,” he says.

The book captures the small, family-run businesses that feel like relics of a time long past.

Alongside institutions such as Pellegrini’s Espresso Bar, Hopetoun Tea Rooms and Stalactites are the hole-in-the-wall cobblers, garages and barbers, among others. Most of them,

Wadelton says, were established in the 1960s and ’70s by post-war European migrants.

About one-third of the businesses have closed since he started in about 2009. With some, he wishes he could go back and take more or better images, but it’s too late.

One of those is Swanston Street’s Golden Tower American-style diner.

“It used to be this little Americanstyle diner; they were all over the place,” Wadelton says. “I would’ve loved to have gone back … I didn’t know it was going to be in the book.”

Most of the closures aren’t because of last year’s lockdown, he says, but because that generation of

FR AN K’ S HAIRD RE S SIN G S , N O R TH COTE \ O PE N E D 1975

shopkeepers and small business owners was getting older and retiring.

“Sometimes they get ill, the shops close and just stay closed like little time machines,” Wadelton says.

“These small businesses are relics of something … they’re part of the fabric of our local communities. Strip shopping and family businesses have been decimated by shopping plazas.”

One common reaction from traders

when Wadelton asked to photograph their businesses was surprise.

“One guy couldn’t understand why I wanted to take a photo of his garage, but he said, ‘Go for your life, knock yourself out.’ Mostly they’re just content and proud to be there.” ● SMALL BUSINESS BY DAVID WADELTON \ Available now ● wadelton.online

St Vincent Gardens, Albert Park

Thirty years ago, Ian Wilson and Judy Dans might not have moved to Albert Park had it not been for a glass of wine with friends under an old magnolia tree in St Vincent Gardens. “If we live near this park, we can live here,” Dans remembers saying at the time. They’ve watched the suburb change around them over the years, but their love for their local park is still strong.

Split into two sections across Montague Street, the eastern and western sides of St Vincent Gardens are distinct but similarly Georgian. Toilets, large trees, picnic areas, paths, playgrounds and sporting facilities are things that bring people back to this lovely little pocket. Its design was influenced by similar precincts in London, and on a crisp Melbourne morning, it really does feel like I am meandering through a park in the British capital.

“It’s a fairly unpretentious garden, and it’s used predominantly by locals,” Wilson says, as their beautiful golden retriever takes a comfortable seat

WHO WILL YOU FIND THERE?

As I enter the western side of the park, I am drawn to a vibrant splash of red flowers growing towards its centre. Poppies and celosias spill over the circular arrangement. To me, this side of the park is peaceful, and its demographic slightly older. As I walk around Albert Park Bowls Club, a few people dotted across benches are reading their books in the morning sun. I can imagine spending some hours on a blanket with a Thermos and a good novel here.

Heading over Montague Street to the eastern side of the gardens, I see more families with prams and dogs. In this part of the park, there are tennis courts and some playgrounds, and the atmosphere is more playful. It’s slightly less bushy, the big trees
