"As time goes on it becomes less and less clear who is helping whom, who is using whom, and to what extent the world in which Kitten finds himself even exists at all."

Michael Burge’s Tank Water is one of this week’s Notable Books in The Weekend Australian. Congratulations Mike! @burgewords

[Irma Gold @Irma_Gold]

Delighted that The Breaking is kicking off the High Country Writers Festival’s annual book club. It’s been the toughest year for debut novelists, so it’s lovely to see it still getting out there. If you’re buying a book, consider opting for a debut released during the pandemic.

[MidnightSun @MidnightSunOne]
