Books containing stories by Shelley Harris
Shelley Harris recommends
The Mad Women's Ball (2021)
Victoria Mas
"The Mad Women's Ball is as lush on the inside as it is on the outside! It's richly immersive, taking us right into the heart of nineteenth-century Paris."
How to Belong (2020)
Sarah Franklin
"Sarah writes intimately about the forest and the lives it sustains, exploring the human condition with forensic tenderness; we feel every step of Tessa and Jo's journeys. It's a big-hearted novel about how we learn to belong despite ourselves, and I relished every word."
The Woman in the Photograph (2019)
Stephanie Butland
"What a glorious combination: Stephanie's warm intelligence brought to bear on the complexities of second-wave feminism. I ate the book up."
