They say you shouldn’t judge a book by its cover, but in this case, the cover of Saxton exclusive Grace Tames’ long-anticipated memoir is worth a mention. It’s a detailed pencil sketch that is a striking cover and even more so when you learn that Tame drew it herself. A picture tells a thousand words and it’s a fitting opening to the hefty volume.

The Ninth Life of a Diamond Miner is Grace's story, in Grace's words, on Grace's terms. Here she returns, again and again, to the things that have driven and saved her: love, connection and radical, unwavering honesty. Like Grace, this book is sharply intelligent, deeply felt, wildly unexpected and often blisteringly funny. And, as with all her work, it offers a constructive and optimistic vision for a better future for all of us.

You pick up her book and wonder what a 28-year-old’s memoir could involve. But Tame’s life has not been like others, plus she’s funny. The memoir skates between darkness and light, at times, poking fun at the darkness. Her descriptions of family and early life are woven in with the grooming and sexual assault that happened when she was 14. You realise just how young she was when these descriptions appear early on, among accounts of her host of aunties and eating Coco Pops with her cousin.

Find The Ninth Life of a Diamond Miner here and in all good bookstores.

Returning to a changed world in mid-2021, David’s book, 537 Days of Winter: Resilience, Endurance and Humanity while stranded in Antarctica during the Pandemic tells the story of what it was like to lead a team through unprecedented uncertainty and how to find resilience in the most extreme environments.
