(Publication summary)
'The brilliant writers featured in this collection are as varied as the cultural landscape we inhabit.'
'It is actually quite difficult to imagine what Australian literature would look like without the University of Queensland Press (UQP). Since it was established in 1948, it has done as much as any Australian publisher to shape Australian creative writing. The title of this excellent anthology Reading the Landscape refers to this literary landscape rather than any thematic interest in Australia’s land.' (Introduction)
