Sarah Sasson's Tidelines

The Final Draft podcast is all about books, writing and literary culture. We're dedicated to exploring Australian writing, looking into the issues that drive our storytelling to discover more from the books you love.

These are the stories that make us who we are.

Sarah Sasson is an Australian physician and writer. Her poetry, short stories and non-fiction have been published in Australia, the United Kingdom and USA. Today we will be talking with Sarah about her debut novel Tidelines which has already met with acclaim, being shortlisted for the Varuna House Publisher Introduction Program and longlisted for the Queensland Writers’ Centre Publishable Program.

On a suburban street in the south of Sydney Grub waits in her car. In the house opposite lives the man who was her brother’s best friend. Grub is there to confront him. To finally wring from him the confession that her family’s life would have been better if he’d never entered it.

Unfolding across the years of their adolescence, Tidelines is the story of Grub and her family. Of her bond with her brother … and the different directions their lives took.

Final Draft is produced and presented by Andrew Pople
