New on the blog today, I've written about STONE YARD DEVOTIONAL by Charlotte Wood.
I loved this unsettling, slow-burning narrative about loss, grief, forgiveness, guilt and death - one of the best contemporary novels I've read in recent years. #BookSky 💙📚

🧵If I could read Helen Garner all day every day, I’d regard it as a life well-lived. I revere all her writing, but it’s her non-fiction I return to most and, to distil it further, for me it’s her diaries that show her to be the absolute killer writer that she is. 1/4

NBCC member Heller McAlpin reviewed a balm for our times, Chloe Dalton’s "Raising Hare," for The Christian Science Monitor:
A sweet-natured hare wins the heart of a writer
In “Raising Hare,” Chloe Dalton writes movingly of rescuing a newborn hare and finding herself more open to the wonders of nature.

"From Grimm she graduated to the works of Dickens. The moral universe was unveiled. So eager was she to join this upward movement towards the light that she hardly noticed that her home resembled the ones she was reading about: a superficial veil of amusement over a deep well of disappointment."

I absolutely loved this novel which references the works of Susan Sontag, Annie Ernaux, Samuel Beckett, and Simone de Beauvoir in a gorgeous meditation on time, projects and the performance art of Tehching Hsieh.

I cannot recommend this book enough: AEDNAN by Linnea Axelsson, trans. by Saskia Vogel. It’s an epic about the last century of Northern Sámi life in Scandinavia told by generations; it’s a gorgeous, sweeping, tragic story of forced assimilation but also cultural reclamation, spoken in many voices
