SHORTLISTED FOR THE AUREALIS AWARD FOR BEST HORROR NOVEL 2025

'Immersive, urgent, hair-raising . . . It demands to be read in one sitting' COURIER-MAIL

'An electrifying and well-crafted Gothic thriller' THE AUSTRALIAN

The acclaimed bestseller from a stunning new Australian talent: The Farm ripples with the Gothic undertones of Rebecca and enthrals from the very first page.

When Leila suffers a health tragedy, her partner, James, suggests a year away from the city. They'll stay on his family farm, where the wide, open spaces and clean country air will help her come to terms with her grief.

But the property is remote and the house oppressive. Leila is disturbed by strange noises, fleeting visions and intrusive dreams. James worries that her medication is causing hallucinations.

As Leila's isolation grows amid the haunted landscape, so does her suspicion that she isn't the first woman James has relocated to the farm. Is what she's experiencing real? Or is it all in her head?

Compulsive and claustrophobic, The Farm asks timely questions about women's bodies, what is expected of them, and who is really in control.

About Amplify Bookstore

An anti-racist social enterprise bookstore specialising in BIPOC books.

Only about 11% of books published are by BIPOC authors — so unless you specifically seek out books by BIPOC authors, you aren't likely to find very many of them organically. At Amplify, BIPOC authors are highlighted and celebrated. Here, they don't have to fight to be seen, and you don't have to fight to find them.

We hope that in our shop, you can discover a new favourite read, find stories that speak uniquely to you, learn about a culture outside your own (or more about your own histories), and gain a better understanding of the systems that connect us all.
