The Telling Time is my debut novel and embraces all that I love myself in a book: a dash of historical learning; strong characters you don't want to leave behind; descriptions that transport; themes/issues that invite discussion; and a story that is hard to put down.
My travels through the former Yugoslavia informed The Telling Time but the connections I forged within the local Croatian community while researching immigrant stories were inspirational. The novel took me six years to write and along the way I completed a Masters in Creative Writing from the University of Auckland.
When The Telling Time first released in 2020 it spent 10 weeks on the top ten fiction charts. By visiting my website you can have the chance
