Our best-seller from the past week is the final instalment of Deborah Levy’s living autobiography, Real Estate. Our reviewer said of the work, ‘more than a memoir; it’s a re-evaluation of what it means to write about the self. Levy’s voice is intimate, formal and always surprising; her style philosophical, funny and incredibly sensual.’ You can read the full review here.
Other books making an appearance on our bestseller list this week include a crime novel which doubles as a thoughtful ‘meditation on the loss of women to male violence’, the long-awaited latest novel from an inimitable voice in literary fiction, and an ABC foreign correspondent’s compelling and candid examination of China.
