Condition: Near Fine. In this mesmerizing study of the effects of a dark secret on the people who must live with it, the author of Charades proves herself a magician with w ords and narrative structure. Moreover, she seems to have an artificer's sk ill for re-creating her fictional approach each time out: each of her novel s is different from the others in theme, tone and method. The constants are her impeccable, sensuous prose and her fiercely intelligent imagination. S et in the rain forest near Brisbane and in the city of Sydney, in Hospital' s native Australia, the narrative slowly unwinds in elliptical scenes and o blique references, like photos in which the subject is blurred but discerni ble, and will gradually come into focus. The "last magician" is Charlie Cha ng, a photographer and filmmaker who devotes himself to unraveling the puzz le at the heart of this tale. Twenty-five years ago, he was one of four chi ldren who witnessed the death of a fifth. One of them caused the event; bla ndly amoral, narcissistic and seemingly without guilt, Robinson Gray is now a famous judge, "Australia's golden boy." Charlie and the others--one woma n named Catherine and another named Cat--remain emotionally maimed. The jud ge's son and the woman who loves him become catalysts in reopening the dram a and are sucked into the whirlpool of evil it again sets in motion. Hospit al enriches her story with allusions ranging from Virgil and Dante to James Joyce and Christina Stead. She offers crackling social commentary as she c ontrasts the lives of the homeless squatters (who live underneath Sydney's streets in a warren of caverns and tunnels called "the quarry") with the cr.

Book
Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. The Balcony is a stunning collection by one of Australia's quiet masters of poetry (Robert Adamson said of Brooks' previous collection, Urban Elegies, that it contained some of 'the best and most uplifting poetry that I have experienced in years'), The Balcony is a volume of one hundred love poems in the tradition of Pablo Neruda's The Captain's Verses or Jacques Prevert's Paroles, but on closer acquaintance becomes so much more. This poetry is by turns erotic, visceral, political, satirical, philosophical and confessional - often all of these at the same time - and is always deeply and unabashedly sensual and lyrical, in a manner that has led early readers, pre-publication, to suggest that it marks the arrival of a powerful new style in this country's writing. A collection of love poems in the tradition of Pablo Neruda's "The Captain's Verses" or Jacques Prevert's "Paroles".

First Edition
First edition, first printing (paperback issue). Octavo-size paperback original. A stain (finger-size) affects the first five preliminary pages before the text begins, coming down from the top edge which is not affected, otherwise good in wrappers. The author's novel about the Australian bushranger Ned Kelly, told in a first person narrative, with prose which is inventive, primitive and often demanding. The paperback issue (simultaneous with the hardcover) had three printings in Australia in this attractive octavo format, and then went into a fourth printing in the smaller standard format.

Paperback. Condition: new. Paperback. One of two inaugural titles in the new UQP Creative Economy + Innovation Culture series - 'new knowledge for the new economy'Following on from his groundbreaking The Creative Economy in 2001, John Howkins' new book grew out of a research project for the Chinese State Council. Asked to provide a global overview of the creative economy, he took the opportunity to go back to first principles and work out a general theory that identifies three general conditions for a creative ecology- talent, freedom and markets. From this he proposes an evolved concept of the creative ecology. This is leading thinking for a new knowledge economy.

One of two inaugural titles in the new UQP Creative Economy + Innovation Culture series - 'new knowledge for the new economy'Revisiting the pioneering work of Richard Hoggart and his book The Uses of Literacy after 50 years, creative industries pioneer John Hartley provides the conceptual framework, historical context and contemporary analysis needed to understand and extend the role of 'consumer productivity' in creative multimedia. This book shows how far both imaginative and factual media are already exploring the unintended consequences of population-wide digital literacy and social networks, promising a step-change in the growth of knowledge comparable to that of print literacy in the modern era.
