Relaxed, Even Resigned, Fiona Wright , single work autobiography

'Towards the end of last year I ended up in hospital. I want to write, I ended up in hospital again, but it was different this time – for the first time, it was an inpatient stay, instead of the day programs I’ve always checked in to instead. Day programs have always been a sensible option for me: they usually run over two or three, occasionally four, days in each week, and so rarely required me to step away entirely from my (freelance, casual) work – I’ve always been a ‘highly functional’ anorexic – and they’re also easier to access, because their size is not constrained by the number of beds available on the ward, unfailingly too few.'  (Introduction)

On the Road and into the Future, Gillian Triggs , extract autobiography

'As president of the Human Rights Commission, Gillian Triggs advocated for the disempowered, the disenfranchised, the marginalised. Speaking Up shares with readers the values that have guided Triggs’ convictions and the causes she has championed. She dares women to be a little vulgar and men to move beyond their comfort zones to achieve equity for all. And she will not rest until Australia has a Bill of Rights.'  (Introduction)

Extraordinary Lessons : Reflections on Writing, Routine and the Ordinary in the Extraordinary, Madeleine Dore , single work column
‘There’s a Social Obligation to Look at This Squarely’, Alice Cottrell (interviewer), single work interview

'When Chloe Hooper’s The Tall Man was published in 2008 it became an instant Australian classic. It was a compelling and confronting book about the worst of colonial Australia: police brutality, racial and judicial injustice, dispossession and the enduring trauma of colonialism. The Arsonist: A Mind on Fire (Hamish Hamilton) is Hooper’s first non-fiction book since then (she published a novel, The Engagement in 2012) and displays all the sensitivity, nuance and lyricism that readers found in The Tall Man. ' (Introduction)

The Egg, Bindy Pritchard , single work short story

'A surprising discovery sparks exciting plans for Bryant, but the no man’s land of hope and longing soon turns to obsession.'
