On J.M. Coetzee : Writers on Writers, Chinmaya Lal Thakur , single work review
— Review of Ceridwen Dovey on J.M. Coetzee Ceridwen Dovey , 2018 single work essay ;

'Ceridwen Dovey’s new estimation of J.M. Coetzee is a personal account. It reflects on the influence of Coetzee’s writings on Dovey’s own work, as well as her mother, Teresa Dovey. The latter is the author of the first critical study of Coetzee’s novels, The Novels of J.M. Coetzee: Lacanian Allegories (1988).' (Introduction)

[Review] Indigenous Transnationalism : Alexis Wright’s Carpentaria, Briar Wood , single work review
— Review of Lynda Ng (ed.), Indigenous Transnationalism: Alexis Wright’s Carpentaria Frances Devlin-Glass , 2019 single work review ;

'Lynda Ng, editor of Indigenous Transnationalim, describes Alexis Wright’s Carpentaria as a “worldly” novel. Anyone who has read Wright’s novel will be aware of its multi-layered, globally connected language and imagery, its genre hybridity and complex characterization, and its faithful representation of its local environment. In particular, the novel’s account of environmental catastrophe – in Carpentaria these are floods, not bushfires – gains relevance and prescience on every rereading, as recent apocalyptic-scale events in one continent become a warning for others.' (Introduction)
