Announcing Tunnel, a new novel, and new editions of Stations and The First Law of Sadness

I am happy to announce the publication in South Africa of my new novel, Tunnel, from Karavan Press. The book launches on 23 May 2023, with a cover by Cape Town-based painter and designer Michael Tymbios.

One evening in early autumn, ten people drive into a tunnel through the Cape mountains – and find themselves trapped. As their limited supplies dwindle, what do they do? Where can they go? What will they find?

Tunnel burrows deep into the psychologies and coping strategies that connect and disconnect these protagonists in a dark, tense and compelling human drama.

An urgent new novel, told through many eyes; a journey – terrific and mystical – through despair, memory, and love.

In addition to Tunnel, Karavan Press will be re-issuing my short story collections Stations and The First Law of Sadness. Michael Tymbios also supplies the covers for these new editions. More information can be found in the “Books” section of this website.

My gratitude to my publisher Karina Szczurek, and my agent Charles Buchan from Wylie Agency.
