Moral Injuries (2024)
Christie Watson
"Moral Injuries takes the reader into a world where medicine meets morality, and every choice has a cost. With page-turning twists, it explores friendship, betrayal and the decisions that define us."
Orbital (2023)
Samantha Harvey
"Orbital is a magnificent, thunderous work and yet so brief, so fleeting. It is an elegy to planet Earth in all its splendour and fragility. Exquisitely well-written, it confirms Samantha Harvey as a singular talent."
Shy (2023)
Max Porter
"There is no other writer quite like him, is there? His consistent ability to control the intersection of form and content, his precision, inventiveness, stylistic radiance and heart. The way Max reveals Shy's fragility without so much as a hint of sentimentality is masterful. It's a book that pushes back against the reductive nature of the now ubiquitous 'trauma plot' and, in doing so, more deeply honours the complexity of its subject."
