Australian indigenous author Alexis Wright has claimed year's Stella prize, which celebrates the writing of Australian women and non-binary people.
The first author to claim the prize for a second time, Judges have described her novel 'Praiseworthy' as a "genre-defiant epic of climate catastrophe proportions - and a political satire that reflects the landscape of Queensland's Gulf Country, where the tale unfolds."
