Elise Esther Hearst's unflinchingly honest - and heartbreakingly funny - debut novel has been shortlisted for The Age 2024 Book of the Year awards.

One Day We're All Going to Die is a tender story about intergenerational grief, family, and making your own way in the world - and one that the author tells with dark wit and poetic simplicity.

Elise is an exciting new voice in fiction that captures readers with its relatable - and sometimes uncomfortable - exploration of love, identity and the quest for personal fulfilment.

Elise is in conversation with writer and interviewer Claire Halliday.
