Pescador's Wake Book Launch Pescador's Wake Matryoshka, Ventura Press, 2018 Varuna Sydney Writers' Festival 2017

Pescador's Wake

‘Katherine Johnson’s debut novel is much like the icebergs that threaten both vessels. Perfectly crafted crystalline prose dazzles on the surface while intricately woven characters and their stories explore the unknown depths of heartache and betrayal, love and resilience.’ Goodreading magazine, February 2009. ****
