Nilima Rao is a Fijian Indian Australian who has always referred to herself as culturally confused. She has since learned that we are all confused in some way and now feels better about the whole thing. When she isnt writing, Nilima can be found wrangling data (the dreaded day job) or wandering around Melbourne laneways in search of the next new wine bar. A Disappearance in Fiji was her first novel.
