Winner of the 1993 Miles Franklin Award, The Tivington Nott is a dark, atmospheric Australian novel exploring wilderness, violence, ritual, and the outsider figure.

Set in the remote fictional region of Exmoor, the novel follows a mysterious stranger whose arrival unsettles an isolated community. As tensions rise, the landscape itself becomes charged with menace and symbolism, turning the story into something mythic, psychological, and deeply Australian.
