AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'In a small coastal town where I know almost no-one, in a hipsterish cafe that is becoming all too familiar, I am eavesdropping on two women at a neighbouring outdoor table. Their conversation has drifted from kayaking to the pangs of the empty nest, to the demise of elderly parents, with not a word about decluttering. Their subjects are my subjects, and perhaps because I have lately been alone in a house full of ghosts, I would rather like to join their table.' (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)
