podcast
Omar Moussa, the winner of this year's Miles Franklin Literary Award for his novel Fierce Land.
It's published by Penguin.
Omar has also just published a book of short stories, which you can seek out.
It's called The Vape Lord of Queanbeyan.
What a great title.
And in October, Omar is going to be a guest of the London Literature Festival, curated by the pop star Dua Lipa.
So there is a lot to celebrate for Omar Moussa right now.
I'm Claire Nicholls.
Thanks for joining me.
We make the book show on the lands of the Wurundjeri and Whadjuk Noongar people.
Hello, I'm Claire Nicholls and this is The Book Show where I bring you conversations with your favourite fiction authors.
Today, I have two books and two wonderful authors for you to meet, starting with a really gorgeous novel by the American writer, Dave Eggers.
Dave Eggers is a writer.
He's also a visual artist.
You might know him for his memoir, A Heartbreaking Work of Staggering Genius, or for his many novels, including The Circle and You Shall Know Our Velocity.
Or maybe you know him for his children's books, or maybe you know him for his nonfiction, or maybe you know him as the founder of McSweeney's, the publishing house and literary journal.
He's a very, very busy guy.
So it's probably not surprising that his new book, it's called Contrapposto, it was two decades in the making.
Contrapposto is about two friends in the American Midwest.
They have big artistic dreams.
