About this listen

Hilde Hinton is a bestselling author of three novels, as well as a big sister to Connie and Samuel Johnson.

A one-time prison officer and second hand book seller, a mother and carer of people in need of temporary housing and support, Hilde’s stories are filled with the kinds of characters that reflect her larger than life experiences and her writing is infused with empathy and insight into the impact of grief, loneliness and trauma.

This year, Hilde’s third novel ‘The Opposite of Lonely’ was released by Hachette Australia.

A deeply moving book in which Hilde puts her finger on the pulse of modern Australian society, exposing the tender underbelly of the most vulnerable members of our community and showing that what we need most is often right in front of us.

A beautifully written story about friendship, motherhood, family and the quiet strength of ordinary people that will stay with you long after you’ve finished reading it.

And I was delighted to have the opportunity to chat with Hilde about ‘The Opposite of Lonely’ for the podcast recently.
