Join Erin Hortle for an intimate Bookoccino event as we celebrating A Catalogue of Love. This stunning novel delves into the complexity of love – love of surfing, love of the natural world (particularly the ocean and weather), love of (post)colonial place, short-tailed shearwater love, inter-species love, three versions of romantic love, love between friends, familial love.

Neika learned to surf in the sometimes crystal-clear, sometimes opaque green barrels of Cloudy Bay, under the guidance of her father and stepfather. Bruny Island, surfing and the natural world are as much a part of her as her blood and breath.

Erin is a Tasmanian-based author whose fiction and essays explore new ways of imagining the human’s relationship with the more than human world, with a distinctly feminist bent.

Her debut novel The Octopus and I was shortlisted for the UTS Glenda Adams Award for Best New Writing and the NSW Premier’s Literary Awards
