Well Versed, Louis Nowra , single work column
'There are hits and misses in an ambitious new anthology of contemporary Australian poetry, argues Louis Nowra.'
(p. 16) Section: Review
At Home under the Tuscan Sun, Miriam Cosic , single work essay
'From the time of the early Enlightenment, the British upper classes sent their sons on the Grand Tour, a sort of moving finishing school through the great centres of classical and Renaissance Europe. As Edward Gibbon wrote in The History of the Decline and Fall of the Roman Empire, “According to the law of custom, and perhaps of reason, foreign travel completes the education of an English gentleman.” Young men from other northern principalities also hit the trail, which led south, often through France, to the rolling landscapes and art treasures of Italy: the epitome of civilisation.' (Introduction)
(p. 20) Section: Review
Ethnic and Sexual Identities Intersect in Diverse Suburbs, Nathan Smith , single work essay
'Peter Polites’s impressive debut novel Down the Hume charts similar terrain to Christos Tsiolkas’s Loaded. It further mines the struggles of ethnic and sexual identity in modern Australia, only this time the protagonist is on a far more precarious path, headed for self-destruction.' (Introduction)
(p. 20) Section: Review
Lives Filled with Yearning for Love and Connections, Thuy On , single work essay
'The title of Sue Woolfe’s new collection of stories sounds like a petulant query from a confused teenager, uttered with a raised eyebrow. But in the book it remains a rhetorical question, mulled over but never asked.' (Introduction)
(p. 21) Section: Review
