Dissolve

This story of a writer finding her voice, struggling to have a room of her own, is the story of ALL women finding space for themselves against the 'very important men' in their lives. It's the story of every woman's life.

'Every woman on Earth should read it' Caroline Overington, Weekend Australian

Having lived through the humiliation and bewildering complexity of heartbreak in her twenties, Nikki Gemmell eventually resurfaced, reclaimed space for herself and found her voice. Decades later she has written a deeply personal, profoundly intimate reflection on love and female creativity, and what happens when the two collide in a man's world.

Dissolve is a conversation. A conversation with the young women of Gemmell's teenage daughter's generation, and of course with men.

'Reading this memoir is like therapy for the soul' ArtsHub

'one of the most enriching, yet debilitating reads I've experienced. tremendous, moving writing' Jessie Tu, Women's Agenda

'Nikki Gemmell wrote this book for me, and I suspect there will be many women who feel the same way. Each page is imbued with startling self-awareness and profound wisdom. Vulnerable, honest and raw' Better Reading
