What do you mean familiarity?

That's it for this week's edition of The Bookshelf, but Cassie McCullough, you're heading off for a few weeks.
voice-verified
Yes, I'll be back next time with Colson Whitehead's Cool Machine, a new translated novel about Frida Kahlo and a Chinese story of care and isolation from the Chinese-Australian writer, Isabel Lee.

I'm Cassie McCullough.
And I'm Kate Evans.
And this is where every week we scan the long, long lists of new books and select those that we think are worth talking about.
And we do that, of course, with a selection of reviewers as well.
And family stories and politics laid bare in Morocco and France in Leila Slimani's I'll Take the Fire.
Oh, well, I'm looking forward to hearing that one, Cassie.
To begin, though, we'll spend a week in Melbourne and another in Wellington in the latest novel from Laura McPhee Brown.
It's called Worry Doll.
We also here on the bookshelf read her second novel, Little Plum.
That came out in 2023.
And it was a story of a woman named Coral who was pregnant with her own little plum.
It was a story about change and transformation and
as well as anxiety.
And I remember it was full of semi-precious stones.
Probably not Beryl.
I think that's a semi-precious stone name that's gone out of fashion.
Call out to my own Auntie Beryl there, of course.
