“Asylum” review

I’m delighted to share another warm review of��Asylum.��

“Asylum by Isobel Blackthorn was a pleasure to read. Within pages of starting the book I was drawn into the story of Yvette and her relationships with the permanent women and transient men in her life. Capturing the inconsistencies in policy and disgust many feel about current politics around who is welcomed to Australia, the story travels across Australia. I have never been to Perth or Fremantle but I felt myself transported.” –��Katherine Webber

Paperback edition of��Asylum will be released by Odyssey Books in May 2015.
