The multi-award-winning memoir of one of Australia's most loved performers

Heartbreaking, joyous, traumatic, intimate and revelatory, Reckoning is the book where Magda Szubanski, one of Australia’s most beloved performers, tells her story.

In this extraordinary memoir, Magda describes her journey of self-discovery from a suburban childhood, haunted by the demons of her father’s espionage activities in wartime Poland and by her secret awareness of her sexuality, to the complex dramas of adulthood and her need to find out the truth about herself and her family. With courage and compassion she addresses her own frailties and fears, and asks the big questions about life, about the shadows we inherit and the gifts we pass on.

Honest, poignant, utterly captivating, Reckoning announces the arrival of a fearless writer and natural storyteller. It will touch the lives of its readers.

A remarkable and moving book. Szubanski's story to self is penned with the most remarkable hard-won wisdom, compassion, and self-reflection. The prose is achingly apt and oftentimes brutal in it's refined directness, and is at once stunning and difficult to read - as such accomplished texts often are. One of the best things I've read in a long time.
