It's by the English writer Edward St.
Aubin.
Again, famous for trauma in his Patrick Melrose novels.
Actually, Hannah, how would you describe that semi-autobiographical series that he wrote?
Would you both want to then read what happens next with this character?
Are you invested enough in the, well, it sounds like there's a number of characters whose lives might be explored and whose inner lives are being showcased as well.
Are you interested enough in them to want to go, oh, what's Edward St.
Aubin going to do next?
Oh, what a lovely answer.
And that is Edward St.
Aubin's Parallel Lines, which is published by Jonathan Cape.
And I should say that you're listening to ABC Radio National's The Bookshelf with me, Kate Evans, and with co-host Jonathan Green and guest novelist Hannah Kent and critic BJ Silcox.
And because what we do every week is bring together a pile of freshly published books, you can probably smell them from there, and freshly opinionated reviewers.
But this time, of course, we also have a room full of readers here at the Melbourne Writers' Festival.
Well, I read that short story as well, which has a girl...
who's about 10 years old on the beach with her father.
The father is lost on the beach.
He's disappeared.
His body is not found.
And we then see this girl having a conversation with an analyst, which is just so cleverly done.
