Shortlisted: 2022 Book of the Year Award

 

Congratulations Patrick Lenton whose short story collection Sexy Tales of Paleontology has been shortlisted for the 2022 Small Press Network Book of the Year Award.

 

Judges’ comments: ‘Sexy Tales of Paleontology (Subbed In) is a laugh-out-loud delight. This anthology is full of surprises: stories that demonstrate a wicked sense of humour and a keen eye towards contemporary celebrity culture, and the performances that play out in our daily lives. Patrick Lenton uses the short story to experiment with the absurd realities of modernity.’

Big congratulations to all the shortlistees.
