Awards/获奖情况：Last month, veteran Australian writer Amanda Lohrey won the 2021 Miles Franklin Award for her seventh book, The Labyrinth. Prior to this, Lohrey won several Australian Premier’s Literary Awards, the Australian Literature Society Gold Medal, and – in 2012 – Lohrey won the Patrick White Award, set up by Australia’s Nobel literature laureate to honour a writer whose work has been under-recognised.
Black Inc. is proud to have published two of Lohrey’s finest earlier works, her bestselling novel, Vertigo, as well as Reading Madame Bovary, the award-winning short story collection. In the aftermath of Lohrey’s recent Miles Franklin win, I wanted to let you know that world rights to these two earlier books are available.
“The subtle interactions between the nine stories, their open-ended dialogue with one another as well as Lohrey’s fluid, musical style makes the collection a pleasure to read, with echoes that stay teasingly in the mind.” —Advertiser
“Lohrey has positioned each character, crafted each setting and adopted each perspective so that from the outset, the reader can only relish the diversity and sumptuousness of the reading experience.” —Courier Mail
“Full of gorgeously framed images and language that begs the reader to wholly enter the lives she renders.” —Canberra Times
“Not a word out of place … Reading Madame Bovary is a pleasure to read” —Books & Publishing
“High-standard, engaging and enjoyable stories” —Australian Book Review
“A master storyteller” —West Weekend Magazine
“Cool, clear, accomplished tales.” —Sunday Age
“Compelling.” —Herald Sun
