TWO NEW BOOKS COMING IN 2026 & 2027

Penguin Random House Australia has acquired a new work of fiction and a new work of collected non-fiction from Monica McInerney, bestselling author of Those Faraday Girls and The Godmothers. Publisher Ali Watts acquired ANZ rights from Fiona Inglis at Curtis Brown.

When Sullivan Met Lola is a warm, funny and moving novel about unexpected friendships, lost loves, family secrets and long-hidden lies, which brings two of Monica’s most-loved characters together in a rollicking story of their own.

Girl on a Roof: Writings on family, fiction and the plot twists of life is a collection of essays that takes readers into the heart of a writer’s mind and explores the unexpected joys and sorrows of life.
