The Knowing by Madeleine Ryan
$30.00 Inc GST
From the author of A Room Called Earth, a brilliant new novel about the mess that comes before salvation.
Camille lives in the country.
She’s forgotten her phone.
She’s taking the train to work.
She’s got period pain.
She can’t escape herself … or her toxic boss, Holly. And it’s Valentine’s Day.
‘Soul medicine for the smartphone weary. Modern-day fears and eternal longings are fashioned into an astonishing, one-of-a-kind literary bouquet. Timely. Unflinching. Life-affirming. Brilliant.’
-Matthew Quick, New York Times bestselling author of The Silver Linings Playbook and We Are the Light
Praise for A Room Called Earth-
‘As an autistic woman, I rarely see myself in novels, let alone ones that are by us and for us. A Room Called Earth spoke to me on every page.’
-Naoise Dolan, author of Exciting Times
‘A Room Called Earth is visceral and voluptuous … The book is a quiet celebration of holding dear to the space within yourself and if you look beyond your skin, how earth itself can bring comfort and wonder.’
-Thuy On, The Sydney Morning Herald
