Next on the menu: 'The Eye of the Sheep'

Most of our readers felt a bit depressed after being assaulted by Golden Boys. There were pleas for a more uplifting book. Sophie Laguna's 2015 Miles Franklin Literary Award winning book The Eye of the Sheep deals with more difficult domestic issues but somehow I feel there is a faint hint of hope there which was not an element of Sonya Hartnett's novel.

 

 

Louise Swinn from The Australian penned this review of Sophie Laguna's debut novel.

 

 

I'm sure we'll have another interesting discussion when we meet on Thursday 26 November at 6.00pm at the Gordon White Library Community Meeting Room!
