Most people know Mick Fanning as the surfer who won three world titles. Some know him as the bloke who punched a shark. But that’s only part of the story.

All Heart is about growing up in a loud, loving family. It’s about chasing a dream and experiencing the highest of highs. It’s about being broken into pieces by unimaginable loss; about three brothers and a father dying too soon. It’s about doing whatever it takes, and learning whatever you can, to find your way again.

Deeply personal and inspirational, All Heart by Mick Fanning is the definitive memoir of one of Australia’s greatest sporting heroes. Out now.

The wait is over 🪻💜📖
The German Ward by Pip Williams is out now.

This is a story about desire.

France, 1915. An English nurse and German doctor fall in love. He is a prisoner of war; she has never cared for rules. Their love is visceral and urgent, forbidden and doomed, and it would have gone unrecorded if not for a series of drawings found more than a century later.

At first the drawings seem insignificant, but the woman who finds them glimpses moments of intimacy and can’t look away. The images become part of a puzzle she wants to solve: who were the lovers, what became of them, and what story of war was the artist trying to tell?

In this luminous tale of hope in the midst of darkness, Pip Williams expands the world of her bestselling novels, The Dictionary of Lost Words and The Bookbinder of Jericho. Sensual and sophisticated, The German Ward shows one of Australia’s most significant writers reaching the height of her skills.
