Wow! That’s an impressive list, Sam! Well done! And what were your thoughts on all those books? Any favourites you’d recommend?

Thanks, Bronwyn!
I LOVED Alan Bissett’s “Death of a Ladies’ Man” – experimental, but not just for the sake of being witty.
I’m really enjoying Jeff Sparrow’s “Killing” too – a really interesting meditation on what violence is, where it comes from and what it does to the people engaging in it… Really good. And so great to read stuff I love from people from Melbourne 🙂 Bless them.
