A sleeper hit in Australia, Grimmish was the first self-published book to be nominated for the Miles Franklin literary award in the prize's 65-year history. The author told The Guardian that "one publisher called my book repellent" but it's found a large cult following down under. (https://www.theguardian.com/books/2022/jun/21/one-publisher-called-my-book-repellent-the-first-self-published-author-up-for-the-miles-franklin) 4.21/5 stars on Goodreads from 82 ratings. Reviews include: "The funniest book about suffering and pain you'll ever read", "The book is an enigmatic but energetic piece of 'exploded historical fiction.' Impossible not to be reminded of David Foster Wallace - stories within stories, narrators begetting narrators, and plenty of perambulation", "a wild, beguiling ride. And all hail the return of the footnote", "No review of this book will ever be able to do it justice as the book is literally indescribable. An instant classic of Australian literature that deserves to be re-read and remembered for many years.
