In The Season, her first new work in over a decade, Helen Garner reflects on her relationship with her youngest grandson, team spirit and the power of the game to enthral as she observes her grandson’s under 16s football team. Michelle de Kretser’s Theory & Practice, set in 1980s bohemian Melbourne, is a mesmerising account of desire and jealousy, truth and shame that expands our notions of what the novel can do. The Great Library of Tomorrow is the first novel in the Book of Wisdom Trilogy, a dazzling and epic new fantasy series from the creative team behind the Tomorrowland music festival.
