The Bass Rock by Evie Wyld is the winner of the 2021 Stella Prize.
Thoughts: well, that picnic scene is still running through my mind, almost a year after reading it… and a book focused on male violence and misogyny is certainly topical.
Congratulations to Evie Wyld and all the short and long-listed authors.
Really need to get round to reading this one.
I loved her first two novels so I really must read this. Gorgeous cover too!
While I wasn’t able to compare this with most of the other nominees, I’m delighted with the result!
Congratulations to the winner! Not the one I chose but a good choice.
You know how happy I am about this!
