Tanya Heaslip : Alice to Prague and Yongey Mingyur Rinpoche with Helen Tworkov : In Love with the World, Ann Skea , single work review

'Alice to Prague and In Love with the World are very different books with contrasting styles and perspectives and different stories to tell. Yet, fundamentally, the theme of the books is the same. Both authors choose to leave a comfortably familiar and orderly life among family and friends, and set off into strange territories to live among people whose backgrounds, experiences and expectations are alien to them. Both set out full of excitement, optimism and hope and both, at times, suffer severe disorientation, panic, doubt and terrible loneliness.'  (Introduction)

— Review of Port Kembla : A Memoir Pam Menzies , 2019 single work autobiography biography ;

'In this lively and affectionate social history of place, Pam Menzies reveals Port Kembla to be both remarkable and ordinary – a driver of the nation as well as being, like so many places in Australia, on the receiving end of change and globalisation.' (Introduction)

— Review of The Chain Adrian McKinty , 2019 single work novel ;
