My review of Eleanor Catton's Birnam Wood for @ConversationEDU

[The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand @ConversationEDU]

📚 Birnam Wood – Eleanor Catton (Granta).

A novel of depth + complexity, Birnam Wood's depiction of a billionaire is refreshingly unsubtle.

It reveals clear lines of cause and effect, and consequence and culpability, writes @JulianNovitz (@Swinburne). https://t.co/JipTYP8nzS

Just wrote about this pretty remarkable Australian novel for Sydney Review of Books.

[Sydney Review of Books @SydReviewBooks]

'Wood’s work is united not just by its concern with trauma as a subject, but also by its repeated interrogation of the ways in which trauma can be used in fiction to construct narrative and meaning.'

DANGEROUSLY GOOD COMPANY – Julian Novitz reviews the final novel in Hilary Mantel’s Cromwell trilogy

‘In the Mirror and the Light, we are finally positioned just a step or two ahead, able to see what is coming when Cromwell cannot.’
