Critics Review

Schmidt’s writing is rich and confident, painting a vivid portrait of a household with something rotten at its core. It’s a strong debut that promises much from an original and compelling new voice in Australian literature. - The Guardian

Schmidt is a consummate storyteller whose account of the Borden murders is utterly compelling. - Australian Book Review

See What I Have Done is a meticulously researched and boldly imagined book that crackles with tension throughout. Schmidt’s portrayal of Lizzie is haunting and complex, a deeply psychological portrait that forces the reader to question their preconceptions about what women are capable of - for better and worse. Both disturbing and gripping, it is an outstanding debut novel about love, death and the lifelong repercussions of unresolved grief. - The Observer

Compelling and incredibly haunting - Australian Women’s Weekly

Believe the hype around this Australian authors debut novel. - Marie Claire

a grand gothic novel - Books + Publishing

For the originality of its voice and the power of its language and imagery, See What I Have Done deserves to be considered a Gothic classic - THE SATURDAY PAPER

Melbourne-based author Sarah Schmidt’s first novel was 10 years in the making and it’s a cracker - GUARDIAN AUSTRALIA
