The Year of the Fruit Cake by Gillian Polack
Humankind is in danger. The Year of the Fruitcake tells of the Earth-based life of a mostly-mindwiped alien anthropologist inhabiting a human perimenopausal body instead of her own more rational body with its capacity to change gender. This alien has definitely shaken a great intergalactic empire by sitting in cafés with her new best friends. Chocolate may or may not have played a part. Will humanity survive? Polack describes her novel as, “Bleak. It’s political. It’s angry. It’s also sarcastic, cynical and funny.”

Winner of the 2020 Australian Ditmar Award for Best Novel. Finalist in 2020 Aurealis Awards for Best Science Fiction Novel.
