Brian Castro's Radical Disorientalism in Shanghai Dancing, Marion Campbell , single work criticism (p. 67-80)
C. J. Koch : An Author Refusing to Relinquish Control, Elaine Minor , single work criticism
Discusses how 'Koch is concerned with countering what he sees as the imposition of marxist, postmodernist, or deconstructionist ideologies upon the Australian reading public. Minor argues, ultimately, that Koch's "refusal to relinquish control over the critical appraisal of his work serves to subvert rather than reinforce the intentional altruism that he professes to weave into his novels"' (Editors' introduction to the collection p.4).
