'The pandemic isn't over. No matter how often we speak of it using the past tense, or how strong our quixotic nostalgia for 'how it used to be'. Despite how oddly clueless we are at assessing actual risk or how much we wish ourselves not to be one of the vulnerable, it persists as a background hum, or a piercing, unshakeable tinnitus. Plans have to change at short notice. Friends are bedridden for days, exhausted for weeks or months. The numbers of cases and deaths, now merely footnotes rather than headlines, continue whether we look at them or not.' (Publication abstract)

    'Many things play on the mind of the new editor at an old magazine. Top priority: don’t let the thing perish on your watch.

    'And here we are with a new edition of Meanjin, the last of its 81st year, and the last of my editorship. The good news is that there will be another edition next March, this one prepared by the magazine’s new—twelfth—editor, Esther Anatolitis.' (Jonathan Green, Editorial introduction)
