Finding the Heart of the Nation by Thomas Mayor

We are the Weather by Jonathan Safran Foer
There’s a temptation to bury your head in the sand when confronted with the spectre of environmental catastrophe. In this volume, however, Jonathan Safran Foer urges a common-sense approach to reducing consumption of meat in order to achieve tangible change. More at Penguin.
Find Me by André Aciman
Call Me By Your Name detailed the brief and bittersweet summer affair between Elio and Oliver, going on to be an award-winning film. Find Me picks up the threads of this love story years later, with the duo contemplating a reconnection. Via Faber & Faber. 
Womerah Lane: Lives and Landscapes by Tom Carment
This memoir by plein air artist Tom Carment chronicles his decades of life in Darlinghurst and his travels around the country, capturing the ephemeral and rendering the scenes with a uniquely human quality. More information is available at Giramondo. 
The Memory Pool by Therese Spruhan
Evocative of idyllic suburban summers – the smell of chlorine, bare soles of feet melting into the concrete – The Memory Pool celebrates the Australian connection to swimming, bringing together a collection of memories from a diverse range of Australians. More at NewSouth Books.
