“…once again Buist’s extensive background in psychiatry shines through…has mixed village mystery, the fish-out-of-water novel and psychological thriller and placed them in the outback. It all combines to give an insight into motherhood in all its rich variety and complication. Barry Reynolds, Herald Sun p59 April 25th 2020

Sydney Morning Herald
‘an effective and engaging crime novel, that handles its issues compassionately, builds tension well and has a fascinating, flawed protagonist. It will be interesting to see what Anne Buist (and Natalie King) do next.’ Aus Crime Review April here

“A boost for Buist” by Jason Steger March 2015 here
Launched Feb 5th at Provincial Hotel in association with Brunswick St Bookstore
In a lovely upstairs space over a glass of champagne and looking out open windows into the bustle and grunge of Fitzroy, not far from the stomping ground of Medea’s Curse heroine/protagonist Natalie King, Mandy Brett (Text publishing senior editor) and Angela Savage (crime fiction author) officially launched Medea’s Curse. The enthralled group are friends, family, writer’s (both Anne Buist’s writing group and her husband Graeme Simsion’s writers and screenplay group as well as published authors Sue Williams, Tim Lowe, Martien Snellen (nonfiction- also a psychiatrist!) and Antoni Jach(also writer’s group co-ordinator)) and friends including two from primary school, three from secondary, one from medicine and a strong cohort of psychiatrists and Austin Health staff–some of which I have been working with for over 20 years. Thank you all!
