A huge congratulations to my UWA colleague, Gail Jones, on being shortlisted for this year’s Miles Franklin award for her new book Dreams of Speaking; Vintage (Random House Australia). Her competition this year is pretty impressive, too: Careless by Deborah Robertson; Carpenteria by Alexis Wright; and Theft: A Love Story by Peter Carey.

The winner will be announced on June 21st.
