I’ve been working with the @thestellaprize for the past few months on their #2019StellaPrize campaign. It’s been a bloody great time. . On Tuesday night the 2019 Winner was announced. Vicki Laveau-Harvie’s The Erratics took the gong: ‘a darkly funny and powerful book that explores the universal themes of family, the pain they can inflict and the legacy they leave’. I started reading it last night and I found myself laughing out loud at many phrases like her description of her home town “In winter the cold will kill you. Nothing personal.” It’s a dark humour shared by my mother’s family and so for which I have an appreciation. . Pictured with The Erratics in the first pic is Jamie Marina Lau’s debut novel Pink Mountain on Locust Island. Like Vicki, Jamie is also a first time published author and at 22 was the youngest author to make the 2019 shortlist. I’m reading her book concurrently which has been described as ‘a modern Australian take on the classic hard-boiled novel which bounces you between pulverised English, elastic Cantonese and the new dialect of a digitised world.’ It’s wild! Check out these and other Stella Prize books - they are some great titles I may not have found without the work of the prize.

I have family across NZ, and family in Christchurch. Today they are wearing scarfs in solidarity and observing the Muslim call to prayer as the nation reflects on the moment a week ago when 50 people lost their lives at two mosques. . I am in awe of NZ’s national response to this horror and of the heartfelt leadership shown. Bravo. .
