Catherine Therese’s novel, Things She Would Have Said Herself, throws us into the world of Leslie Bird, a matriarch who loves being a wife and mother, but loathes her big bonkers family. An exhilarating and rambunctious story of life, relationships, detritus at the bottom of the wardrobe, and the messy love that, in this case, holds it all together. Hosted by Michaela Kalowski.
Catherine Therese is an award-winning writer, designer and educator whose memoir, The Weight of Silence, was a Sydney Morning Herald Book of the Year. Her latest novel Things She Would Have Said Herself, is a work of domestic fiction.
