Welcome to Owl Publishing

Owl Publishing is a small, independent publisher founded in June 1992 by Helen Nickas, a lecturer in Greek Studies at La Trobe University, Melbourne, Australia. She saw this venture as an extension of her research on Greek-Australian writers, many of whom have documented the post-war period in Australia with acute sensitivity and perspicacity, as well as high literary skill.

Mothers from the Edge

Mothers from the Edge is an antipodean anthology about mothers and daughters, consisting of (auto)biographical fiction, fictionalised (auto)biography, memoirs, short stories, plays. These are all new works by twenty-eight women writers in Australia with a Greek background, or connection.
