LOVE & VIRTUE

by Diana Reid

At a recent staff meeting we got completely side-tracked for a full 15 minutes because someone mentioned Love & Virtue and we couldn’t stop talking about it. Reid is already being called Australia’s answer to Sally Rooney. Set amongst the elite colleges of a prestigious Sydney university, it delves deep into moral questions about consent, privilege, sexual politics and what it is to be a good person. I won’t say too much more about the plot, except to say that it makes for compulsive reading and is sure to divide opinions. We loved it. Read it, decide for yourself, and join the conversation! ​
