​​BEATRIX & FRED, Emily Spurr's second novel, was reviewed by The Weekend Australian as "one the most unique and curious novels of 2023, and that is precisely what makes it one of the best." A wild and darkly humorous tale, it will have you contemplating what it is to be human. It will be published in translation in Sweden in early 2027.
​
Originally from Tasmania, Emily lives in Melbourne, Australia, with her partner, their twins and the ghost of a deaf geriatric cat.
