Te Mir Mie by Mavis Jorpe Clark named book of the year 1966
Judges hesitated but awarded Te Mir Mie by Mavis Jorpe Clark Lansdowne as Book of the Year 1966 though reviews note roughness and limited editing. Clark, wife of Latham, Melbourne, who ran The Min Min in 1960, drew inspiration from a road trip across Australia and a girl she met during that journey.
