Timeline
Jasper Jones was shortlisted for the 2011 International Dublin Literary Award. The novel was short listed for the Michael L. Printz Award in 2012 by the American Library Association.
In 2010, Silvey was once again named one of The Sydney Morning Herald's Best Young Australian Novelists of the year.
Silvey's second novel Jasper Jones was completed in early 2008 with the aid of an Australia Council's New Work Grant. The novel was described as conforming "to the conventions of Australian Gothic, which projects contemporary experience onto … dysfunctional families in small, remote towns.... where young protagonists encounter violence or death, and where outsiders are punished for their difference". Jasper Jones is Silvey's most successful novel, selling well (half a million copies), and having won or been short listed for several prominent literary awards. A film adaptation of the novel, based on a screenplay written by Silvey and Shaun Grant, was released in 2017. The film was directed by Rachel Perkins and stars Toni Collette, Levi Miller, Aaron McGrath, and Angourie Rice.
Rhubarb was selected as the inaugural book for the "One Book" series of events at the 2005 Perth International Arts Festival, and was included in the Australian national "Books Alive" campaign.
He published his first novel, Rhubarb, in 2004, after writing it when he was only 19 years old. This novel would place Silvey on The Sydney Morning Herald's Best Young Australian Novelists list in 2005.
