Please join us at The Book Lounge for a celebration of Andrew Brown’s The Bitterness of Olives, winner of the 2024 Sunday Times Fiction Prize.
The Book Lounge is where the story of the publication of this novel with Karavan Press began (join us for the celebration to hear the details) and where the book was officially launched in October last year. Since its publications, The Bitterness of Olives has been offering its readers a deeply empathetic insight into a turbulent history that continues to tragically unfold in front of our eyes. Earlier this month, the bestselling novel has been recognised with the prestigious Sunday Times Fiction Prize.
The Sunday Times Fiction Prize judges called it a “contemporaneous, daring, complex and aesthetically pleasing novel”.
It will be a great joy to celebrate this exquisite book and its wonderful author at the bookshop where it all started!
We hope to see you all there!

Congratulations! You are doing wonderful work supporting great writers and that too, is deserving of a prize! I’m also delighted with Dawn Garish’s Nadine Gordimer Award. Can’t be at the celebrations but hope it is a fittingly special time. Warm regards Annemarie Hendrikz
