Abstract
The Grisly Wife Bookshop is Australia's largest business specialising in Australian literature. It was established in 2001 and is named after the award-winning novel that won Rodney Hall his second Miles Franklin Award. Stock is in excess of 15,000 volumes. All dustwrappers have archival quality protectors. The description of condition always notes if a dustwrapper is price-clipped and whether there are markings by previous owners or bookshop labels. John Thawley runs The Grisly Wife Bookshop and has held senior positions at La Trobe University Library and CSIRO. He was also closely involved in collection management at Swinburne University and the State Library of Victoria where he produced their first published collection management policy. He is an accredited member of the Australian Society of Indexers and has a keen interest in Australian literature. We accept Mastercard and Visa. Institutions may be billed on request.
