By New Zealand Society of Authors | Posted: Wednesday Jul 30, 2025
The winning manuscript, Relic Party, is a short story collection that studies loss, both intimate and global, human and nonhuman, ranging through ugly ghosts, false relics, and desperate pilgrimages, to a dysfunctional 80’s farmhouse and the speculative worlds of climate affected futures.
Congratulations also to Belinda O’Keefe who is the runner-up, with her manuscript Trespassers Will Be Baked, Scrambled, Fried and Eaten.
