Imperial Harvest is a timely book that speaks to the universal lessons of war. This fiction by bestselling Australian author Bruce Pascoe is set in 13th century Mongolia and addresses pertinent themes of dispossession, tracing imperialist tactics all the way back to the rise of the Khan empire.
‘This is one of the most profound and arresting novels I have ever read. The vast scope of Bruce Pascoe’s imagination is breath-taking. Imperial Harvest, rendered in lucid and poetic prose, is a meditation on the barbaric absurdity of war, while being, as readers would expect from this extraordinary writer, a poetic hymn to the planet itself.’
—Carmel Bird
‘I loved this bountiful sensuous book … from a writer who confronts, again, the contradictions of history, religion and race.’
—Hilary McPhee
