NEVER LOOK DESPERATE
A Fiction Novel By Rachel Matthews
The story tackles the absurdity of despair in a recovering world, the liberation from isolation and the wild frontier of middle-aged Tinder.
Matthews writes with unflinching honesty tempered by humour and a wise compassion. Touching, funny and sexy, Never Look Desperate is transgressive but hugely readable.
Clare Strahan, author of Cracked and The Learning Curves of Vanessa Partridge

SIREN
A Fiction Novel By Rachel Matthews
A brave new novel that sensitively explores one womanโs experience of sexual violence and the silencing of those who feel compelled to speak out.
Matthews renders Jordiโs fate and the culture behind it with sharp urgency and a surprisingly delicate hand…. Itโs an acute take on the toxic culture of macho celebrity, and pulls no punches on the sexual violence it can enable, but also a story illuminated by resilience and unexpected kindness.
Cameron Woodhead, Sydney Morning Herald, The Age
