We publish books that matter — narrative and literary nonfiction on important topics, and the best of local, international, and translated fiction.

This November, we have a jam-packed publishing schedule as we publish our eight final books for 2023. 

Ashes 2023 is a memento of an unforgettable cricket series, as reported on by famed cricket writer Gideon Haigh. The Diabetes Code Journal is a 12-week hands-on companion to The Diabetes Code by Dr Jason Fung, modelled on the groundbreaking approach from the book. Best Australian Political Cartoons 2023 is back for another year, with cartoons by some of Australia’s funniest and most perceptive political cartoonists. Publishing in English for the first time, Juja is the sweeping debut novel by Nino Haratischvili (of The Eighth Life fame) that follows the life and impacts of a fictional novelist. A Woman I Know tells the true story of filmmaker Mary Haverstick, whose research for her film led her to a remarkable set of women in mid-century intelligence, and shocking new clues about the assassination of John F. Kennedy. Written by linguist Rob Drummond, You’re All Talk explores the diversity of our spoken language and how embracing this can give us a better understanding of other people, and ourselves. By Jade Adelstein, author of Tokyo Vice, The Last Yakuza tells the history of the yakuza from a unique perspective of an expert on Japanese organised crime coupled with the compassion of a longtime friend.

We also have a spectacular year to come in 2024, and are pleased to share our 2024 January–June catalogue for an overview of some of the books you can look forward to reading in the new year.
