CONGRATULATIONS TO...

Australian author Jon Bauer for the inclusion of his debut novel 'Rocks in the Belly' on the shortlist for the 2012 International IMPAC Dublin Award for 2012. This award is the largest and most international prize of its kind and previous winners include David Malouf, Colm Toibin, and Orhan Pamuk.

Rocks in the Belly is about a precocious eight-year-old boy and the volatile adult he becomes. During childhood his mother fosters boys, despite the jealous turmoil it arouses in her son. Jealousy that reaches unmanageable proportions when she fosters Robert, an amiable child she can't help bonding with. Until the bond triggers an event that profoundly changes everyone. Especially Robert.

At twenty-eight the son returns to face his mother. He hasn't forgiven her for what happened to Robert. But now she's the dependent one and he the dominant force — a power he can't help but abuse. Published by Scribe, RRP $24.95.

eBooks have arrived at New Edition!

Stuck in a queue and wish you had a good read in your pocket? Packing for a holiday and having to choose between the new Murakami and the favorite t-shirt? Want to cut down on paper but not cut down on reading?

The problem solver might be our new eBook shop. You can download the free Apps to your iPhone, iPad or any number of clever machines and carry all the reading you want without the bulk.

We're partnering with ReadCloud to bring you another choice in how you read.

Our online shop is now open!

While we can't bring the whole bookshop to you, we can now bring you the books. If you live more than a leisurely stroll away (let's say... Geraldton?) browsing our unique range is a whole lot easier this way.


To keep it simple, postage is $9.00 per order anywhere in Australia; take the parking or train fare costs away and it's quite an attractive proposition.

Sorry, we're keeping the chairs and The Grumpy Sailor Cafe isn't doing house calls just yet!
