Up for discussion this month is the remarkable new book "Things we didn't see coming" from author Steven Amsterdam. This title has, deservedly, just been named The Age's book of the year for 2009. We agree, it's certainly a book, and excellent, but is it a novel or a collection of short stories? Catch up with Donna, Kulja and Josh Earl as they work their way through Steven Amsterdam's debut, um, work of fiction.
