Tony Hughes-d'Aeth on Praiseworthy by Alexis Wright

View descriptionShare

In this week’s ABR Podcast, Tony Hughes-d’Aeth reviews Alexis Wright’s new novel, Praiseworthy. Expectations are high: after all, Wright is the only author to have won both the Miles Franklin Award and the Stella Prize. Praiseworthy, Hughes-d’Aeth argues, is a book unlike any other. Grounded in an Indigenous cosmology, combining realism with absurdism, it takes aim at its ‘one true enemy’: assimilation. Listen to Tony Hughes-d’Aeth read ‘The Question of the Future: Alexis Wright’s Expansive New Work’, from the April issue of ABR.
