My review of Eleanor Catton's Birnam Wood for @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). bit.ly/3Y8HNBn

Just wrote about this pretty remarkable Australian novel for Sydney Review of Books.
'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.' sydneyreviewofbooks.com/revi…

Remember reading my first Paul Thomas novel when I was 13. Huge honour to have been nominated alongside him, Vanda Symon and Paul Cleave.
