Haunted Places and Spaces
In their recent books, Robbie Arnott, Bronwyn Birdsall, and Holly Ringland create vivid settings that transport readers to locations in Australia and across the globe – to a bygone era in Tasmania’s north, myth-laden Denmark and Faroe Islands, and a Balkan city recovering from war.
They speak to Geordie Williamson about the places and liminal spaces at the pulsing heart of their novels.
