NADIA

I tend to gravitate to anything that is either super sad or super weird. If I finish a book in hysterics or need to stare at a wall for an hour, I know I’ve had a good time. My go-to authors are Sally Rooney, Deborah Levy, Ottessa Moshfegh, Eliza Clark, Joan Didion, Eve Babitz and Maggie Nelson. 

RECENT FAVOURITES

This book is bright with the radical days of youth in 1980s Melbourne, following a young woman as she navigates deconstructed relationships, writing a thesis on the Woolfmother (Virginia Woolf), and finding her place as a daughter of migrants in bohemian St Kilda. Michelle de Kretser effortlessly and delightfully disrupts the form of the novel by coalescing memoir, essay and fiction, while tackling serious themes such as colonialism and shame, love and desire.
