It's an absolute treat - totally enthralling and completely and utterly satisfying. It's another triumph for Mary-Lou Stephens. " – Karen Brooks, best selling author of The Good Wife of Bath "Sweet and bitter, and a story that’s brightly compelling and thought-provoking at once. With Stephen’s fine eye for historical detail and ear for dialogue that’s just right, this novel is a lovely leap into the past." – Kim Kelly winner of the Finlay Lloyd 20/40 Prize Praise for The Last of the Apple Blossom "An outstanding historical novel about women and the secrets and burdens they carry. Mary-Lou Stephens’ debut is an impressive feat of storytelling, making her a name to watch." The Australian "One of the most beautifully written books I’ve read." Tania Blanchard, best selling author Praise for Sex, Drugs and Meditation "Bracingly honest, funny and rewarding, this is a book you can't put down." Sydney Morning Herald "Perfection. Sex, Drugs and Meditation is one of the best memoirs I have read in years." Walter Mason, The Universal Heart Book Club "Funny, sage, insightful and just a little bit twisted." Who Magazine "Stephens knows how to write a story, and she does so with honesty and good humour." MindFood Magazine
