LOCAL AUTHOR HONOURED - DAVID ARNAULT

Gippsland resident David Arnault has won a major gong from the Independent Publisher Book Awards for his novel "The Koan of the Fisherman's Wife". More than 5,200 entrants were submitted to the US-based organisation and David's book took out the bronze medal in the "Visionary Fiction" category. The "Koan of the Fisherman's Wife" has two themes running through it. One is concerned with the environmental degradation of the world's oceans. The second theme is about the indomitability of the human spirit.

Launched in 1996, the Independent Publishers awards were the first unaffiliated awards program open exclusively to independent publishers, including universities and self-published works.

We are delighted to have almost all of David Arnault's work on our shelves, so come and take a look at the book that won the award and his other titles.
