Calling all Deborah Levy's fans! We have gorgeous hardback copies of her latest book 'My Year in Paris with Gertrude Stein' (a fiction) in stock 😍

The narrator of Deborah Levy’s latest, dazzling fiction has gone to Paris to find out. There she meets Eva with the blinding gaze, an artist in a long-distance marriage, and F***y, a sexually adventurous financier; together they cook, walk, read and argue late into the nights.

‘In one short and sly book after another, [Levy] writes about characters navigating swerves of history and sexuality, and the social and personal rootlessness that accompanies both’ Atlantic

We adored this book and know you will too! Here until 5.30pm 🧡

Join us to hear Darren Groth speak to Michael Gerard Bauer about his memoir, Marooned on Wednesday May 20th at 6.30pm, at Riverbend Books. 📖

On June 8, 2022, in a Vancouver townhouse, Darren Groth gathers with his family to watch State of Origin – uncertain of the result, unsure when they'll meet again, and fearing this may be the last Maroons game with his ailing father. Marooned is a moving, funny, and deeply heartfelt memoir of fathers and sons, love of team, and love of state.

Spanning five decades of Queensland rugby league devotion – from dusty backyards in Hughenden to frosty mornings in Canada – it's a story about belonging, resilience, and the ties that bind us across distance, hardship, and time.
