Tim Winton’s first new fiction in more than five years arrived in shops last Friday. A powerful novel about masculinity, violence, forgiveness and love, The Shepherd’s Hut is the story of a young man on the run in the vast saltlands of Western Australia. It’s our bestselling book of last week.
Other bestselling titles include Andrew Leigh’s fascinating deep dive into the radical researchers who changed the world (Randomistas), two fantastic fiction debuts from Australian authors (The Tattooist of Auschwitz, The Rúin), and Kamila Shamsie’s reimagining of Sophocles’ Antigone (Home Fire).
Shamsie’s masterful novel novel was recently longlisted for the Women’s Prize for Fiction alongside some brilliant other books. Find the full longlist here.
