Yeah.
No, I'm not gonna say that.
I'm saying that it's exquisite the way it's put together.
But what I would also say is that one of the things that we do in publishing is when a book comes in, we have to pick what its readership is.

It feels like YA that may have been sort of upsold into an adult category.
So I think that there is a sweetness and earnestness about the book.
I think there is a technical facility, but I think that it is slightly not the book that I would have expected it to be.
That's not to say that there aren't many
Okay.
poor old David Malouf who used to get letters each year w from people who'd gone out to Edmondson Street to his old home and discovered it'd been turned into a car park and would write him shirty letters.

But it's interesting.
Sarah's a Brisbane girl and Robert's a Brisbane boy and it's amazing how how close to um a particular locale a David's work is.
But just literally anything he ever wrote, please go back, pick up a Maloof.
But I wanted to just share something by a Tasmanian local named Keeley Job.
This manuscript came to me and I was so sad not to be able to publish it, but I'm so thrilled that Scribe has.
