An explosive, contemporary literary thriller from international bestselling author Nikki Gemmell – Wing is Lord of the Flies meets Picnic at Hanging Rock meets Promising Young Woman.
Praise for Wing:
'Nikki Gemmell is such an exquisite writer. I'm compelled to re-read, just to savour her unique style, use of uncommon adjectives, her turn of phrase and sentence structures. The story is gripping from the start. This is a story about difficult relationships ... It's about what it is to be a woman today and it's a mesmerising read.' Good Reading
'Brave, vicious and biting yet terribly tender and truthful. I read it in a single sitting, almost without breathing.' Suzie Miller, Prima Facie
'A deftly plotted, taut, compulsive read' Sydney Morning Herald
'Full of rage, joy and hope: I dare you to put it down.' Susan Johnson, Aphrodite's Breath
'Taut, timely and mysterious – and a beautiful evocation of the power and centrality of female friendship.' Kathryn Heyman, Fury
'An unflinching literary tour de force that melds the gripping narrative intensity of a contemporary thriller with profound explorations of female friendship, generational divides, and the complexities and nuances of gender dynamics. Brilliant and bold.' Megan Rogers, The Heart is a Star
