Meanjin 84.4 Summer 2025

This is a new book. Condition: Brand New.

Celebrate 85 years of fiction, poetry and prose in Meanjin with some of Australia's finest writers as they look back, asking how the Australia they wrote into then has changed. Peter Craven, Sarah Holland-Batt, John Kinsella, Ellen van Neerven, pi.O., Bruce Pascoe, Sara M. Saleh and Christos Tsiolkas reflect on their evolution alongside shifts in our ethical-creative conversations, the stories we tell ourselves, technology and our institutions. Our feature 'interview' with Meanjin's founding editor Clem Christesen (1911-2003) draws on decades of editorials that make clear the connection between art and politics. And in a vital reimagining, June Oscar envisions Australia 30 years from now, inviting us all to shape a nation that reflects our highest ideals.
