Wow! Soph just let me know that Kristel Thornell, one of the joint winners of this years Vogel Awards won with a novel about Clarice Beckett, called Night Street that is to be published in the next year. Details here.This is massive news for me! If you are new reader, you may not know, but I am obsessed with Clarice Beckett, a little-known painter from early last century, who has gotten far less recognition than she deserves, and who has never had a thorough biography written.
My secret little dream has always been to be the one to write that biography, but that's another story.
Anyway, that's awesome.
