A Wigwam for a Goose's Bridle

What a devastatingly beautiful read. I was initially attracted to this novel for its topic of a neurodivergent child, but as a mother of two boys (who at this point can not be labelled as either neurotypical nor neurodivergent) this book speaks to so many of a parent’s worst fears. What are our children being exposed to when we are not with them? How can we best protect them? And what can we do when that protection fails?

I can’t believe I haven’t heard of Fiona Higgins before now! How exciting to discover a “new” Australian author. It looks like I have a backlog to catch up on!

Thank you so much to NetGalley and the publisher for this ARC. Best book I’ve read all year.
