    2. General Nicolai Tarakanov advised the reservists assembled beneath the roof of reactor three, which was littered with radioactive graphite and uranium rods from the explosion of reactor four: ‘Comrades, you should know … that I was up on the roof two days ago with an officer, and one thing for sure I can tell you is that there’s nothing terrifying.’

    'Four years ago, writing an essay on David Malouf, I learned that Hawthorn Library held a copy of his first poetry collection, Bicycle and Other Poems (1970). I borrowed it, and, sadly, I returned it, too. Today, I rang the library to find the book. The friendly librarian on duty told me that it had been ‘deleted’ from the catalogue. She could find no record of whether they had given it away or thrown it in the recycling bin.' (Lisa Gorton, Introduction to No Theme VII)
