Our best-seller from the past week is Robyn Annear’s, Adrift in Melbourne which contains a series of walks that showcase the hidden histories we might scurry past every day, the buildings now gone and the extraordinary characters who inhabited them. Our reviewer, Chris Gordon says of the work, ‘this fantastic book gifts you the gossip held in our streets. Before you know it, you’ll be completely enchanted again by our city. And it’s all because you became friends with Robyn Annear. Lucky you.’ Read her full review here.
Other books making an appearance on our bestseller list this week include the historical queer romance novel from Hannah Kent, that has jumped to number two this week, a fully revised & expanded travel guide to Indigenous Australia, and an enchanting collection of annotated historical images and contemporary photographs of historical Melbourne.
