About Grisly Wife Bookshop (ANZAAB/ILAB)
The Grisly Wife Bookshop is Australia's largest business specialising in Australian literature. It was
established in 2001 and is named after the award-winning novel that won Rodney Hall his
second Miles Franklin Award. The business stocks new as well
as second-hand and rare Australian literature in all its forms, novels, poetry and drama. Stock is in excess of 15,000
volumes.
All dustwrappers have archival quality protectors. The description of condition always notes
if a dustwrapper is price-clipped and whether there are markings by previous owners or bookshop labels.
A number of major Australian authors, including Helen Garner, Gerald Murnane, Laurie Clancy, Nicholas
Jose, Rodney Hall and Carmel Bird are supporters of the
enterprise and most of their works as first editions, reprints, signed copies and recent works are
available.
We cater for the serious collector of Australian literature as well as for individuals with an
interest in reading Australian literature.
