Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Two men, Robert and Vras, met in 1993 and formed a committed relationship until Roberts death of leukemia in May, 2022. This short book is a farewell letter to Robert, a long lamentation and a threnody, exploring the nature of their friendship, their own transformation over time and finally the unexpected event of death. In the letter, Vras unfolds the expression of grief and loss after their pledge to grow old together didnt eventuate.He recollects their shared experiences and encounters while presenting a relationship which brought together affection, intimacy, eros and friendship. Without idealisation or escapism, this confessional letter pays homage to the power of human emotions and the destiny formed by the will of lovers to be together, until death tore them apart and, perhaps, beyond death.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Time Flies Too is the sequel to 2021s beguiling and absorbing memoir Time Flies by Al Clark, who in its last paragraph married and settled in Australia after a Spanish village childhood, a Scottish boarding school education and nearly two decades of living and working in London in the pioneering days of Virgin Records.These new recollections playfully explore his adjustment to life in a new country, the labyrinth involved in making films, the gifted collaborators he encountered along the way, and the work itself notably one of Australias most enduringly successful movies (The Adventures of Priscilla, Queen of the Desert ). It completes the journey of a solitary boy who fell in love with cinema, and of the man who strove to bring it to life.'Beautifully written, hugely entertaining, Clarks amazing adventures in the movie business are masterfully woven into a grand story of love and family.' Richard Kuipers, Variety'A warm-hearted, witty and insightful page turner from one of Australias leading producers, sharing the highs and lows and the behind-the-scenes dramas of some of our most loved and respected films. A tale of optimism and ingenuity.' Jan Chapman'Al Clarks second volume of memoirs is a high-octane read. His wild ride through the rough and tumble of Australian filmmaking is exhilarating.'

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Late Hybrids in these twenty short stories are the second and third generations of Greek Australians who, having a strong sense of their Greek identity and traditions, are not always at ease in the modern Australian world. The stories explore not just cultural differences between Greeks and Australians but also the distinctive psyche of Greek Australians when they encounter issues of life, love, death and duty to ones past. Among the characters are a Grexit exile investment banker, a Golden Fleece, a Sentimental Wog and two murderers. As in Nikos Athanasous earlier Hybrids, these stories speak to all those who feel caught between two cultures.'This new collection of short stories by Nikos Athanasou vocalises an anatomy of the new identities that emerged in the Greek-Australian experience after their long settlement in the fifth continent. The writer with a serene and detached gaze, reconstructs the emotional atmosphere of this transition with profound empathy and affection through snapshots of magic realism, transforming the actual and the realistic into a fantastic landscape of marvellous and expressionistic vignettes.' Vrasidas Karalis, Sir Nicholas Laurantus Professor of Modern Greek, Chair of Modern Greek Department'A rich gallery of characters, so nice and normal, at least they seem to be, but they are emotional icebergs. What we see on the surface is nothing compared to whats going on below.'

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. ** Shortlisted for WA Premiers Prize for Book of the Year 2023 **Interweaving fiction and memoir in multiple threads, Thistledown Seed follows the displacement and violence of the Holocaust for a Polish family who subsequently settle in Western Australia. In this deeply moving account, Louise Helfgott explores another side of her familys tragic past made famous in the Oscar-winning movie, Shine, about her brother David Helfgott. The floating thistledown seed, often seen in Europe during summer, represents the diaspora of the Jewish people who were scattered around the world as a result of the Holocaust.'Only a poet perhaps can extract such beauty from a tragedy so immense it will shape generations not yet even born. Thistledown Seed is a powerful, moving, if forgiving exploration of hearts so frozen with emotion that their capacity to cripple is seemingly unbounding a searing, yet beguiling record of one of the most painful journeys into adulthood I have read.' Sara Dowse, author of Sapphires, Schemetime and As the Lonely Fly'This beautifully written and deeply moving book weaves together three narratives tracing trauma down the generations. The first is Louise Helfgotts own present day quest through modern Europe to trace members of her family lost to the Holocaust. The second is the story the generation who perished in the incinerators of the death camps. In the third Louise bears painful witness as a small child to the impact of trauma on her parents, survivors who forever mourned and lived in the shadow of past nightmares.'

Paperback. Condizione: Good condition. 6-Aug. Recollections of Mr Lascaris relates Vrasidas Karalis' personal recollections of discussions and meetings with Manoly Lascaris, Patrick White's life-partner. In these recollections, Lascaris, an obscure figure in the existing literature on White, appears as a distinct intellectual in his own right, talking about Patrick White, Australia and Greece.His ideas offer new perspectives in the interpretation of White's work and indicate a different understanding of their relationship. This book sheds light on the life and the mind of an extremely enigmatic man who has been overlooked because of his elusive personality and who spent all his life almost ignored under the shadow of Australia's most important writer.

A book that crosses with apparent ease the boundaries of philosophy, literary criticism (there are passages on Coleridge, on D.H. Lawrence, on Henry Lawson) and human-animal relations, by a writer recently described as 'one of the most skilful, unusual and versatile of Australian writers' (Sydney Morning Herald, January 2016).

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. 'Our lives with non-human animals are characterised by a kind of unremitting contempt. Habits of life, traditions of thought, and failures of imagination have rendered us blind to their invitations to companionship within a shared world. And philosophy, alas, has offered little to assuage our moral incomprehension, our soul blindness, preferring to make what appeal it can through the languid language of rights or the calculus of sentient suffering. Over the last few decades, it has fallen increasingly to novelists, like J.M. Coetzee, and poets, like David Brooks artists whose language has slipped the leash, if you will, of pure reason to awaken us to the possibility of moral encounter with non-human animals. Brookss essay Turin is truly a startling achievement. It startles us from an impoverished slumber, leaving us wondering how we could have been so blind to the gentle presence, the insistent voices, the sly wisdom, the subtle reproach, the offers of friendship held out by our non-human companions. The world cannot help but look different once Brooks rips way the veil of our all-too-human conceit.' Scott Stephens Scott Stephens is the religion and ethics editor of the Australian Broadcasting Corporation, and the co-host (with Waleed Aly) of The Minefield on ABC Radio National. He is the author of On Contempt (forthcoming from Melbourne University Press). Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This issue of Southerly captures a snapshot of Australian writing today. Stories from writers just starting out on their long apprenticeship are placed side-by-side with work from Australia's finest essayists, writers and poets. This rich and expansive issue asks what it means to write in a contemporary Australia fraught with inequality, divisiveness, and the unrelenting exploitation of country. In a special collaboration with the Sydney Story Factory, which runs workshops for young and marginalised writers, this issue of Southerly includes short stories that demonstrate the vibrancy and the vision of Australia's up-and coming writers. Including essays from Caroline Lefevre and John Kinsella, poetry from Kevin Hart, and much, much more, The Long Apprenticeship, is an issue comprising, as ever, the best in Australian writing. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Questionable characters are the characters we can't define, forget, resist or feel entirely comfortable with. They challenge our values and beliefs and surprise us with new imaginings of ethos.This issue of Southerly draws together a rich and eclectic range of essays, poetry and fiction. Luigi Gussago argues that Peter Carey's histories present a challenge to the univocal false-consciousness of Australian colonial history, while Debra Adelaide's Reading Australia essay on Thea Astley's Drylands argues that Astley draws "text, author and reader into an embrace so intimate they are barely distinguishable".The detective fiction "pot-boilers" of Shane Martin, AKA, George Johnston, are considered in a new light by Paul Genoni and Tanya Dalziell. Martin's detective figure, Challis, "the moon-drifted leprechaun", is a questionable character, par excellence. All this, plus Southerly's usual feast of the best new poetry and fiction from Australia and New Zealand, and reviews of the same.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In literary terms, violence provides a readymade drama, an impetus for action and reaction, shock, emotion, transformation from Milton's War in Heaven to Modernist aesthetics of shock to the contemporary thriller. Literature is also a site where violent experience is variously recorded, masked, performed and objectified. The work in this issue of Southerly is situated at the intersections where intense personal experience meets the force of pervasive operations including poverty, colonialism, gendered and racialised violence from the colonial period to the present.This issue of Southerly includes work that engages with violence across that spectrum in relation to both content and form. Three essays address Australia's (ongoing) colonial violence. In Violence in Colonial Women's Novels Kate Livett identifies a pattern of three interconnected forms of violence in a wide range of romance-realist novels. In addition to self-evident physical violence, she examines the workings of 'structural violence' in the novels' accounts of capitalist-colonialism, which is often masked, she argues, 'by the displacement of direct intention or malice onto motives such as financial avarice or philanthropic charity.' The third form of violence is 'symbolic violence' in which 'assault, impoverishment and total erasure of certain subjects and groups, such as women, colonised peoples and non-gender-normative people, are performed in the symbolic system of language and representation.' Livett traces the way numerous colonial women's novels engage with these issues, which they struggle to resolve in the genre of romance ealism.The issue also includes a range of unthemed material and reviews as well as the shortlisted and winning poems from the David Harold Tribe Poetry Award.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. This issue of Southerly pays tribute to David Brooks, who is retiring as editor after two decades' stewardship. It includes poetry, fiction, essays and memoir that interweave readings of David's work with accounts of the various literary communities that David has worked in over four decades from Canberra to North America, Perth, Slovenia, Sydney and now, Katoomba. Together, these pieces create a world of a very specific kind, one populated by words and word people and the currents between them in specific times and places. They also enable us to draw out recurrent themes and practices.The issue is a tribute and a celebration of a creative literary life. We are reminded of the etymology of the word text, from weaving. The issue shows one remarkable textual practice that weaves through the literary page and daily life to community and culture, including this journal. The issue also includes unthemed work across all categories including reviews. Shipping may be from our Sydney, NSW warehouse or from our UK or US warehouse, depending on stock availability.

'For no one bears this life alone' is how Hoelderlin describes the mutuality that binds us to our forebears.Each of the contributors to this issue of Southerly endeavours to understand the ways in which this mutuality guides our actions and behaviours. What forms of writing and memorialisation can assist us to acknowledge the unfinished nature of the relationships that link the present to the past, the living to the dead? Is there a way to answer the phantom's call yet keep faith with those secrets that have made their home in us?

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Persia is the name of an ancient civilisation, a cultural zone, and an aesthetic imaginary. It has long fascinated Western travellers, scholars of cultural dialogue and mystical poets. This issue of Southerly is an intervention in how Persian culture and poetics are perceived and adopted in today's Australian and global literary scenes. How do contemporary Australian poets and scholars respond to the Sufi ghazals of Hafez of Shiraz? What has been the understanding of Afghan cameleers according to the discourse of Australian national identity? How are the questions of gender and identity addressed by contemporary Iranian writers? And what are some of the best examples of contemporary Persian- Australian fiction, non-fiction and poetry? This issue of Southerly presents a diverse and provocative range of responses to these questions and shows how our literary cultures are intertwined. There is also a selection of texts to be found in The Long Paddock, and an offering of the best Australian writing on themes not related to the Persian world.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. Skywriting making radio waves is at once the captivating story of contemporary Australian cultural life and a personal biography of an acclaimed 'radio poet', whose signature radio features and documentaries on ABC RN have creatively conveyed ideas, personalities, and places. Timely and revelatory, it draws on the experiential riches of life in radio times from the youthful foment that rocked ABC airwaves in the 1970s until the advent of podcasting. Skywriting ventures beyond the institution and invisible theatre of radio to enchant the mind's ear of readers with evocative portrayals and luminous portraits: chalking 'Eternity' on the midnight streets with artist Martin Sharp; examining the afterlife of poet Vicki Viidikas and photographer Carol Jerrems, artistic bright sparks of the author's generation; to name just a few. It's a love letter to the radio feature, a unique form of storytelling that has explored and contributed to shaping our culture, and whose story has not been told until now.

Paperback. Condizione: new. Paperback. In a corner of old Poland, near a great forest touched by magic, a baker receives a secret to help his ailing marriage. Enchantment comes but there is also a price to pay. In a marvel of plotting, a spiral of double-identity comedy, cakes, music and moral conundrums which require the invention of photography, a Count's soiree, a squad of Cossacks and a balloon ride to Rome to sort them out, The Baker's Alchemy brings charm and triumph again to the institution of marriage. Reviewed in The Saturday Paper here.'With its nostalgia for lost youth, rich with puns and word-play, The Baker's Alchemy is like a Brothers Grimm tale for adults, only much funnier. Strange and highly entertaining.' - Mark O'Flynn, author of The Last Days of Ava Langdon 'The Baker's Alchemy has the gleam of a ramarkable imagination and the authenticity of a folk tale. A writer at the top of his powers.' - Barry Oakley, novelist and playwright 'I enjoyed The Baker's Alchemy immensely. The tale embodies a quite wonderful use of language, wry humour and intimate knowledge of the Polish primeval forest. The subtle dislocation of reality in the service of magic is gloriously creative.' - Michael Moran, author Shipping may be from our UK warehouse or from our Australian or US warehouses, depending on stock availability.
