Hannah Bent is a Sydney-based author whose debut novel 'When Things Are Alive They Hum', was recently published by one of Australia's newest publishing houses, Ultimo Press.

Born and raised in Hong Kong, Hannah studied Fine Art and Film in London before deciding to pursue further studies in writing in Sydney. Completing a Masters In Creative Writing, Hannah was awarded the Ray Koppe Young Writer's Award in 2013 for her novel in progress.

Listeners, this book is something to behold. Exploring themes of grief, love, sisterhood and existence, this story brought me to tears with its exquisite tenderness and insight.

It was with much pleasure that I welcomed Hannah to the podcast earlier this year.
