Griffith Review 66 — Ashley Hay

Griffith Review's seventh annual edition dedicated to the novella eschews a set theme to showcase work across a spectrum of subjects. Open to both fiction and creative non-fiction, Griffith Review's dedication to the novella form has been hailed by Nick Earls as central to the revival of the form in Australia. ‘Griffith Review's Novella Project is one of the world's leading novella competitions,' he comments ‘and is the cornerstone of the revitalisation of the form in Australia.'

As well as the winning novella entries, Griffith Review 66 will feature new work from Holly Ringland and Griffith Review Writing Fellow Krissy Kneen.

This year's expert judges for the novella competition are Maxine Beneba Clarke, Aviva Tuffield, Matthew Condon and Holden Sheppard.

Ashley Hay is a novelist, essayist and editor of Griffith Review.
