— Review of The Fiction of Tim Winton : Earthed and Sacred Lyn McCredden , 2017 multi chapter work criticism

'Creative writers and artists have important things to say to us not only as individuals but as a society. These writers and artists themselves are not best placed to explicate and discuss what these things are. There is a real need for knowledgeable, sophisticated, popularising literary criticism. A discipline wholly disconnected from the public discourses of the society it is part of and that helps to sustain it, is a short-sighted and vulnerable one.' (Introduction)

1 Between Denial and Despair : Understanding the Decline of Literary Publishing in Australia Nathan Hollier , 2007 single work criticism
— Appears in: Southern Review , vol. 40 no. 1 2007; (p. 62-77)
"This article examines recent research into and commentary on the Australian publishing industry and a perceived decline in that industry's publishing of literary texts. It is argued that this decline is real; that it is undesirable, because literary texts remain culturally and politically valuable; that it is taking place for economic and ultimately political reasons that also impact upon understandings of this decline; and that active steps to preserve literary diversity can be, should be and are being taken."
