20/40 Publishing Prize 2025
Winning Books
‘This year’s (fiction) winner, Anna by
Angus Gaunt, is the best yet.
Anna becomes a universal tale of displacement and finding oneself beyond one’s circumstance. It’s dark, with only the odd flicker of light to give hope. And damn it’s good.’
— Bram Presser
‘This little powerhouse of a memoir is at once raw and entirely relatable.
With stark and humorous honesty, Kim takes us by the hand and allows us to step inside her mind… I devoured this book in one sitting and then sat for almost just as long again contemplating it.’
— Theresa Smith, Theresa Smith Writes
