MATIA - Pre-publication review from Books + Publishing

MATIA - Pre-publication review from Books + Publishing

The first offical pre-publication review is in for Matia from Books + Publishing! Here is an extract I can share with you:

“Through four different points of view, Tsokos Purtill excavates what it means to be a woman, particularly when traditional values and the social and cultural consequences of immigration trickle down through generations. Matia is an engrossing novel that looks at intergenerational trauma, secrets, guilt, tradition and superstition, for fans of The Eighth Life by Nino Haratischvili.”

—DANIELLE BAGNATO, Books + Publishing, August 2024.

It’s such an insightful and nuanced review, and I’m so grateful to Danielle Bagnato and Books + Publishing. Thanks also to Brendan Fredericks and the team at UWA Publishing.

The review is available here for Books + Publishing subscribers and will be unlocked for all when Matia is released in October 2024:
