We are very excited to announce that HarperCollins HQ has acquired EliseHearst’s debut novel in a hotly-contest two-book deal.
HQ head of publishing Jo Mackay described the novel as ‘fiercely honest and fearless … a deep dive into the complex questions that surround culture, identity politics and generational trauma in contemporary Australia. This novel is both a sadly affectionate and brilliantly unsparing examination of the glorious, awkward, messiness of life.’
The novel will be published in early 2023, with Elise’s second book to follow 12 months later.
