Sea Green with Pink Shorts Press

  • Summary

  • A special episode! Anna is joined by Emily Hart and Margot Lloyd, founders of Pink Shorts Press.

    We discuss the exciting launch of this new publisher and the 2025 Stella Prize shortlist.

    Our book of the week is SEA GREEN by Barbara Hanrahan, re-issued by Pink Shorts Press this year with an introduction by Laura Elizabeth Woollett. This semi-autobiographical novel tells the story of Virginia, a school-teacher and artist who travels from Adelaide to London in the 1960s. An Australian feminist classic, it explores the clash between a conservative upbringing with an artistic life.
