Antigona and Me (2009) Kate Clanchy "Not just a heart-stopping story, but one of that is essential of our times." | February (2010) Lisa Moore "Moore's work is passionate, gritty, lucid, and beautiful. She has a great gift." | Hand in the Fire (2010) Hugo Hamilton "A great international writer. His is the voice of the migrant, the stranger and the traveller in us all." | |
