Newsroom named Greta & Valdin by Rebecca K Reilly (Ngāti Hine, Ngāti Wai) the best book of 2021. The 2022 Ockham Book Award judges described it as “gloriously queer, hilarious and relatable”. It won Best First Book and was nominated for the prestigious Jann Medlicott Acorn Prize for Fiction. Rebecca creates messy, self-sabotaging characters who are relatable because of their flaws, not despite them. Drawn to outsiders and weirdos, Rebecca is a surprising and deeply funny writer who perfectly captures the chaos of family and unrequited love. She’ll kōrero with former Tauranga local and Verb Wellington director Claire Mabey about how she crafted this unique novel, where she draws her inspiration from, and who her idols are.
