There is no such thing it would seem, so I am attempting to compile one (the things we do!)<br /><br />But Nick Earls has a few books that are classified as novellas, as does Helen Garner (The Children's Bach). The Ladies of Missalonghi by Colleen McCullough also fits this bill. David Malouf's An Imaginary Life is a novella about Ovid. The Cockatoos (now published by Text Classics) is a collection of novellas by Patrick White. I also read Springtime: A Ghost Story by Michelle de Kretser a few years ago. <br /><br />There are more and I will put together a bigger list some time this month (I hope!)Bronahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11110584237325026052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1483877654474162845.post-20934404781073123372020-11-03T00:54:05.310+11:002020-11-03T00:54:05.310+11:00Thanks for the shout-out, Brona!
