The Naked Writer is a collection of strong essays on Australian authors and poets. Very fine pieces on Martin Boyd, J.M. Coetzee, Gwen Harwood and others, and a memorial lecture on Hazel Rowley by Alex Miller along with some very strong fiction and poetry. Maybe something by John A. Scott, author of a new novel N (to be published by Brandl & Schlesinger in April), and possibly something from Brenda Walker.
