Cosmo Cosmolino is a 1992 book by Australian writer Helen Garner.[1] The book consists of three linked works: two short stories and a novella, though the author and critics have described it as a novel.[2]
It was first published in Australia by McPhee Gribble[3] and was shortlisted for the 1993 Miles Franklin Award.[4] It has been reported that the novel's title is Garner's favourite, and came to her in a dream.[5]
