Listen "Talking Aussie Books with Eliza Henry-Jones"
Episode Synopsis
Eliza Henry-Jones is a Victorian author, freelance writer, Phd candidate and flower farmer whose previous novels have been listed for multiple literary awards.
Her work has been published in a variety of places - including The Guardian, Country Style and The Age amongst others.
In 2017, a trip to the remote Orkney Islands of Scotland highlighted Eliza’s preoccupation with hauntings and the interplay between places and traumatic events.
This in turn inspired her latest novel.
Called 'Salt and Skin' (Ultimo Press), Eliza has drawn on her experience of the Orkney Islands and penned an evocative novel steeped in history and folklore. It’s a book that explores love and family, grief and trauma and the way past hurts can continue to affect the present.
An utterly mesmerising read that I was hard-pressed to put down.
I was delighted to chat with Eliza about her novel on the podcast earlier this year.
