LONGLISTED FOR THE 2024 INDIE BOOK AWARDS
I wish I could think, hope, laugh, dream, and indeed, write like Richard Glover. And I wish every Australian could read this book. A soaring tribute to the power of wishful thinking
Trent Dalton
Glover asks life's big questions and helps us celebrate the simple joys - bin night, tax receipts that don't fade, and the secret thrill of high-pressure hosing
Lisa Millar, co-host ABC-TV's News Breakfast
Charming, funny, and sincere, this is yet another winning book from the only Boomer worth listening to. A triumph!
Tom Ballard, comedian
He is right about leaf blowers, for example, but quite wrong about breakfast in bed. Richard's view of the world will frequently have you punching the air and shouting, "Yes!"
Jean Kittson, performer, writer, and comedian
If life is better when we laugh, then this book is the balm.
Jacinta Parsons, broadcaster, writer, and co-host of ABC Melbourne's Friday Revue
There is an eternal hopefulness in all this man does. I only wish more of his wishes were granted.
Tommy Dean, comedian, and regular on ABC 702's Thank God It's Friday
Do you hate noisy restaurants, pre-ripped jeans, and pedestrians who walk five abreast? Do you also have a problem with plastic-wrapped fruit, climate-change deniers, and take-away sandwiches priced at $14.95? And, most of all, do you think the world would be a better place if people got back their sense of humor?
Here's proof you are not alone. Heartfelt and hilarious, serious but sly, Best Wishes is the encyclopedia of can do better. It's a plea for a better world - one wish at a time.
