Overview: ‘I chose the jagged rocks, the broken bones, the spattered brains. I chose beauty. I’d choose it again.’
Luna Lewis is white. But her friends aren’t, nor are her brothers, nor her one-time Princess of Indonesia–finalist stepmother. After transforming from pudgy preteen to ‘exotic’ beauty, Luna reinvents herself as ‘Luna Lu’ and takes her ticket out of the most isolated city on earth. However, as her international modelling career approaches its expiry date, Luna must grapple with what she’s sacrificed — and who she’s become — in her mission to conquer the world.
Featuring an intersecting cast of glamour-hungry public schoolgirls, WAGs, mining heiresses, backpacker-barmaids, and cosmetic nurses, West Girls examines beauty, race, class divisions, and social mobility in Australia’s richest state. It’s also a devastating catalogue of the myriad, inventive ways in which women love and hurt one another.

West Girls shows us a sordid, self-regarding, and shiny world of schoolgirls and supermodels, and in any other lesser writer’s hands this would be straight parody, but Woollett’s extraordinary talent is to make the “real” more grotesque than the satire, and to infuse every sentence with her poet’s vision and every character with a true melancholy and flawed humanity.’ALICE PUNG, AUTHOR OF ONE HUNDRED DAYS
