AbstractHistoryArchive Description
'Jennifer Ellison's rapport with the writers and their writing has elicited surprisingly frank views on the relationship between authors and publishers; the place of writers in society; the role of gender in writing; and many other issues. Together, the interviews form a dynamic account of the creative, professional and personal motivations of some of Australia's most important living writers.' (Source: back cover)
