On Mature Reflection : Strange Objects and the Cultivation of Reflective Reading, Emma Heyde , single work criticism
Literature has frequently taken a leading position in the re-examination of the collective memory, and Australian writer Gary Crew's novel Strange Objects holds a particularly important place in re-exam-ining Australia's contact history.

In doing so, it reasserts the centrality of the adolescent reader in the production of meaning.
