Heather Rose
Part political thriller, part family saga and part love letter to Tasmania, Bruny is the most ambitious novel yet from the Stella Prize– and Christina Stead Prize–winning author of The Museum of Modern Love. Opening with an explosive terrorist act, Bruny immerses us in a future where America has withdrawn from the UN, a king sits on the British throne and China is building a bridge between Hobart and Bruny Island. Heather Rose discusses her subversive tale of a new world order with Suzanne Leal.
