I am so excited to have Dianne Yarwood join us for a conversation in October. Her book The Wakes was my stand out favourite novel for 2023 - so much so that my husband was sick of hearing me talk about it!

Dianne is flying up from Sydney for the event, despite being deep in the copy editing phase of her next novel.

Here is what other authors have said about The Wakes -

‘A truly delightful debut novel about life, death . . . and chicken sandwiches. I ate up every delicious word’

— LIANE MORIARTY | Author

‘The Wakes skilfully illuminates the breadth of the human experience through the eyes of a suite of perfectly imperfect characters.

This novel is rich with wisdom, love, humour and a sparkling joy – that unique kind of story that can make you sob and chuckle in the very same scene’

— KELLY RIMMER | Author
