'Harrower can pierce your heart.'--Michael Dirda, the Washington Post
'Utterly hypnotic.'--Eimear McBride, author of A Girl is a Half-formed Thing
'Like a treasure from an unearthed time capsule....Harrower's fearsome objectivity and her bristling, beautiful prose come from modernist masters like Katherine Mansfield and Elizabeth Bowen.'--The Wall Street Journal
Internationally acclaimed for her five brilliant novels, Elizabeth Harrower also wrote a number of extraordinary short stories. Some have been previously published, but others are released here for the first time.
A Few Days in the Country is a stellar collection, which underlines Harrower's standing as one of the great post-war Australian writers.
Elizabeth Harrower is the author of Down in the City, The Long Prospect, The Catherine Wheel, and The Watch Tower--all republished as Text Classics--and In Certain Circles, which was published in 2014 and in early 2015 was a BBC Radio 4 Book at Bedtime.
