{"product_id":"search-history-by-amy-taylor","title":"'Search History' by Amy Taylor","description":"\u003ch4\u003eA recent Australian novel about intimacy under the conditions of the internet.\u003c\/h4\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cmeta charset=\"utf-8\"\u003eThe novel follows Ana, newly arrived in Melbourne, as she becomes entangled with Evan, a man whose former girlfriend’s online presence begins to exert its own strange pressure. What gets contorted in this space? Here in this book, a lot of it is love, friendship, longing; increasingly hard in a world where you're endlessly findable. Taylor is especially good on the comedy and grief of partial knowledge: the way we build people out of fragments, messages, profiles, search results, omissions. A clean, readable, quietly uneasy novel about wanting closeness while living inside the machinery of comparison. Very normal behaviour, obviously.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eAllen \u0026amp; Unwin paperback, first edition, 2023.
