Her collection of short stories BEARDED LADIES was published to critical acclaim in 1984.

This and her other novels, DREAMHOUSE and JOAN MAKES HISTORY, have all been published in the UK and the USA and translated into several European languages.

Kate Grenville lives in Sydney with her husband, son and daughter. (from the sleevenotes of DARK PLACES)
DARK PLACES was published in Australia in 1994.
Dark Places
Albion Gidley Singer inhabits the shell of an entirely proper man of the world: husband, father, pillar of the community. But within him are frightened and frightening dark places from which spring fear and loathing of the flesh of females. And finally, the kind of violence that might call itself love.
It is through the eyes of Albion Gidley Singer that the world is seen and in his voice that the story is told, and it is a voice that never suffers from self doubt. He can never know, as the reader does, that what he sees is horribly wrong and what he thinks about the world around him is distorted by his damaged self.

Married three times and with three adult children, she works in textiles and has been commissioned to help establish the Pioneer Heritage Museum in Karakarook. The old mining town has virtually no industry, except for a few barely surviving small local businesses. The aim is to establish the museum as a major tourist attraction in order to save the town from financial ruin. Douglas is attracted to Harley and begins a clumsy but sincere effort to ingratiate himself with her. Harley is psychologically scarred from previous marriages and reluctant to become involved. A relationship of sorts develops until Harley brusquely calls it off when she realises they have become the talk of the small town. Several incidents occur, however, which draw them back together.

The Novelist as Barbarian
Many creative writers have used historical material in their work. Kate Grenville reflects on her own use of such material and on issues which this has raised. How important is historical accuracy to the creative process?
When Jill Roe said of history "Getting it right means you can’t make it up", it was a reminder to novelists like me that, although we might use history, we also have to respect it. It’s all very well to play fast and loose with historical truths, but there comes a point when you have to get it right, or try to at least. As a novelist, my relationship to history has always been pretty much the same relationship the Goths had to Rome. ( Wait - was it Rome? Was it Goths?) History for a greedy novelist like me is just one more place to pillage. What we’re after, of course, is stories, and we know that history is bulging with beauties. Having found them, we then proceed to fiddle with them to make them the way we want them to be, rather than the way they really were. We get it wrong, willfully and knowingly. But perhaps you could say that the very flagrency of our "getting it wrong" points to the fact that all stories ­ even the history "story" ­ are made. They have an agenda, even if it’s an unconscious one. Perhaps there are many ways to get it right.
