Stella Prize winner logoCongratulations to Charlotte Wood, whose book The Natural Way of Things has been named winner of the 2016 Stella Prize.

The $50,000 prize is for Australian women writers and only books, both fiction and non-fiction, published between 1 January 2015 and 31 December 2015 were eligible.

I’m a long-time fan of Wood’s work (you can see all my reviews here) and am delighted to see her talent rewarded in this manner.

The book will be published here in the UK by Allen & Unwin on 2 June.

I am a book obsessive who has been charting my reading life online since the early 2000s. I review modern and contemporary literature, mainly from Australia and Ireland, but with a nod to other regions of the world, too.
