Nice things people have said about me:
“Summer Land is the real deal: as smart as she is gross-out, and charming as she is lacerating. Her writing makes me sigh with admiration and shriek with appalled laughter.”
BENJAMIN LAW
Author of The Family Law, Gaysia and Sh*t Asian Mothers Say
“Summer Land is wet-your-pants funny, frank and relatable – and that’s why her work connects with readers around the world. Not only is Summer’s writing entertaining, but her candid honesty makes women feel a little less alone.”
GABRIELLE TOZER
Author of Remind Me How This Ends, The Intern and Faking It
“Summer Land is Gen Y’s answer to Bill Bryson. She’s an inveterate outlier who drags you in from the cold and wraps you in a great warm blanket of Summer lovin’. With an eye for the absurd, an ear for language and a nose for poop (actual poop, not bullpoop), Summer welcomes you into her hilarious world of cross cultural misadventure. With her cherry-chapsticked all-American cheerleader charm, she will steal your heart and open your mind to life’s strange but true potential. After all, she is the only Jew in Mudgee.”
CLARE WRIGHT
2014 Stella Prize Winner and author of You Daughters of Freedom and The Forgotten Rebels of Eureka
“Summer Land tells what it’s really like to be a woman – coupling love with humiliation, beauty with brawn – and bundling it into a light and epically entertaining package. Honest, breezy and hilarious.”
