Love & Virtue by Diana Reid
Feminism, power and sex play out through the eyes of young Australian university students in a fiercely authentic contemporary narrative.
Diana Reid will be called the new Sally Rooney - you're certain of it by the end of page oneBy the end of this real, raw and startling novel, you know Reid is the talent to whom every smart young novelist who follows her will be compared - or hope to be. * Meg Mason, author of Sorrow and Bliss *
Reid's prose interrogates everything we think we know about love. Heartfelt and unputdownable, this is a remarkably self-assured debut. * Victoria Hannan, author of Kokomo *
It is not enough to say Love & Virtue heralds the arrival of a new literary talent: Reid is intensely incisive and brilliant. * Sarah Schmidt, author of See What I Have Done *
A fierce new voice at just the right moment, shining a light on consent and class with clarity and grace. * Inga Simpson, author of Where The Trees Were and Understory *
I have been chewing on this book for days now. Compelling reading. So well written. Complex. I keep turning it over in my mind and I want to talk about it! * Hannah Kent, author of Burial Rites *
