I’d just finished Robbie Arnott’s new book, <i>Limberlost</i>. While rare these days, I was moved to tears by this gentle story of Ned who we meet shooting rabbits along the Tamar to sell pelts and buy himself a little boat while his brothers are away at war. There is no escaping the gentle intensity of Robbie’s best novel so far (and yes, I adored the rambunctious <i>Flames</i> and the environmental peon <i>Rain Heron</i>).<p></p><p><i>Limberlost</i> is launching in Hobart on October 6 and up north at the Tamar Valley Writers Festival in October, with events in the North West after that.

to her poems, and, in her words, “a</span><span style="color: black; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">t a recent rehearsal
they played a piece they'd just composed to interweave with one of my poems
about stingrays. And oh, I just about swooned with delight. It was the
loveliest most stingray-ey music I could imagine... all ripply and sinuous and
just brilliant.”<br />
Diving Into The Derwent: music, poetry, images is happening at MAC on 25<sup>th</sup>
November at 2.30 pm. Tickets: $25/$20, with a homebaked afternoon tea included.

Fringe Festival? Last I heard of this when I was crying on the Fringe
secretary’s door step C2007, stepping away from all involvement, burnt burnt
burnt out, like it did to so many of us – so I rejoice at the redux of a Hobart
Fringe Festival. All power, and good night sleeps to the new Fringe heads.<br />
<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>You can submit your expression of
interest now – it is open and accepting of everyone and everything – though I
do wonder if the Polish Club will be as um, avant-garde as we were – eg will
there be a poetry show with wads of offal thrown around the stage. That said,
the Hobart Fringes of yore featured some bloody amazing stuff, from here, from
abroad, some of the absolute crazy gems that inform a lot of the current arts
scene in Hobart (alongside that museum of course, of course).

Tasmania have announced which organisations they are funding for 2018/2019.
They had just over $700 000 available for all the arts organisations in the
state for this period, and it is good to see that the Sydney Review of Books
will be commissioning essays on the Tasmanian Writing Life, though no other
support for literature orgs made it past the dollar sign – and nor do I know if
others applied. The Tasmanian Writers Centre, which was not awarded funding
from Arts Tasmania last year, has recently had Jill Eddington, formerly of the
Australia Council looking in to their situation as well as the literature
‘scene’ more generally in Tasmania, and it is understood the centre did not
apply in the latest funding round. </span><span style="color: #222222; font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 12.0pt;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

by scientist and writer Nicole Gill of the Hobart City Council will see a group
of walkers strolling along the Sandy Bay Foreshore and discussing George
Monbiot's <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Feral</i>. This book is a
"search for enchantment on the frontiers of rewilding", and a very
readable call to arms by Monbiot, for us to consider returning some of our
human landscapes to the natural world, and to enliven ourselves in the process.
Monbiot is perhaps best known as a journalist covering social justice and
environmental issues for The Guardian. He also hates sheep. During the stroll,

have I begun this column with a breathy incitement to get some bookish events
into you. This month you’ll be struggling not to – what, with ingenious and
lovely People’s Library, the Tamar Valley Writers’ Festival and a resounding
swathe of other events, both north and south, I challenge you to stay by the
hearth with a cat on your lap.</span></div>

<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "Calibri Light", sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">As well as the
above two celebrations of the word, which you can read more about in these
pages, I am really looking forward to hearing Sholeh Wolpe (Iran/US) discuss
her translation of </span><em><span style="background: white; color: #333333; font-family: "Calibri Light",sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; mso-ascii-theme-font: major-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: Helvetica; mso-hansi-theme-font: major-latin;">The Conference of the Birds</span></em><span style="background: white; color: #333333; font-family: "Calibri Light", sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;"> by Farid ud-Din Attar. Originally written
in Persian in the twelfth century it is considered one of Persian literature’s
most celebrated masterpieces. Rumi (who is the number one bestselling poet in
the United States today, all these centuries after he first penned his earthy
and ethereal beauty) believed Attar to be “the Master” of Sufi mystic poetry.
Sholeh will read from her translation and discuss the process of bringing this
luminous, allegorical tale to a contemporary English translation. <a href="https://www.fullersbookshop.com.au/event/the-conference-of-the-birds/" target="_blank">All this, at Fullers on September 19, 5.30pm.</a> Make sure you drop Fullers a line to rsvp

a performance to behold it will be- (I’ve had the fortune to see her perform
twice before, once in Guangzhou, China and once in Singharaja, Bali, I travel
for beautiful words, I really do)– <a href="http://www.thepeopleslibrary.net/" target="_blank">at The People’s Library on September 18 at 7pm.</a> I hope she will also be delivering a workshop – check out

Festival and after the festival he’s travelling south to deliver, with Ian
Andrew, a special workshop on democratic publishing called Publishing Power to
the People. This will take place on the afternoon of September 20. This
workshop will cost $30, run for three hours and cover subjects such as they lay
of the land in independent (self) publishing, what the merits of independent
publishing actually are, especially compared to the traditional publishing
space, and it will also include a panel discussion, as well as a Q & A
opportunity for participants. Drop me a line for more details. </span></div>

This novel takes Queensland author Kneen, who has in the past delved deep into
some transgressive erotica, pushed boundaries with futuristic imaginings and
smashed paradigms with sexy blue goo to the deep south of Tasmania. Krissy
makes for a generous interview subject – and this book is rich pickings for an
entertaining conversation.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

version of good may be. I ate pizza in the bath the other day and that helped
in the good-winter stakes. And I’ve been reading Yuri Herrera, a Mexican writer,
via his translator Lisa Dillman – who somehow brings Mexican street slang to a
sharp gnarliness in English. Ooof! The proscriptive lawlessness of the drugking
pin’s court in <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Kingdom Cons</i> and the
young artist, creator of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">corridos, </i>-smugglers
tunes- has knocked me sideways. It’s partly a language thing, as is the
preoccupation by the narrator in Susanna Moore’s 1990s dark erotic <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">In The Cut</i>, which I’m reading,
alongside pre-reading for the Tamar Valley Writers Festival in September. I saw
the movie of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Into the Cut</i> years ago
so the some of the suspense is gone in the read – but the narrator studies
street slang of New York, and often makes asides in the text about the joy or
strangeness of a word. </span></div>

<span style="font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">July already! Two more months of darkness to go,
but two months which offer opportunities for all of you wonderful writers and
readers hidden in pockets around our obscure and beautiful island. These
include:<br />
<br />
1) Lots of reading time. The weather, the darkness calls us to refine our
activity. Reading is the ultimate in refined. </span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;"><br />
2) Submitting to the Wheeler Centre’s wonderful initiative The Next Chapter. T</span><span style="font-family: "calibri light" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt;">his is for ‘the stories that
aren’t being told, the voices we’re not hearing, and the ideas that need
patience, care and work to introduce to the world.’ Such a gorgeous premise I
could weep. It translates as $15 000 and a mentor to help you develop your
work, as well as easing your way towards being published. For more information,
head to the <a href="https://thenextchapter.wheelercentre.com/">Wheeler Centre’s website</a>. <br /><br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

<div class="MsoNormal">
Our sessions have begun and the interest amongst inmates is
not high, despite active recruitment and an ad run in the prison rag. The first
session is held in a room that, despite having windows, is completely internal
and is circled with computers sitting in various stages of awake. <br /><br /><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I had no idea about how many we could expect to turn up and
the LINC Literacy Coordinator, tireless and full time at the coal face, was
concerned that we might have trouble getting people to attend. These concerns
are now assuaged, but we began with three inmates only. <br />
<br />
Before the session began Mark (no real names are used in these posts) popped
into the office with a book of poetry he had borrowed from the library. It’s a
book of poems by Geoff Goodfellow, a poet of the people, and one who uses his
real life experience in his poems, and doesn’t gloss over the gnarlier aspects
of life. I think that this augers well. There is a library in the prison, it’s
called the Risdon LINC and I really, really love that this is present inside. <br /><br /><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The first session was run with Mark, Andrew and Adrian and
it was my first chance to ask them what they actually think of poetry. I was
heartily surprised to hear that they didn’t think it was “girly” (sadly a derogatory
word in this space) or that it had to rhyme. These ideas came later in our
sessions, and the desire for poems to rhyme, as well as, in one instant, an
insistence that it is not a poem unless it rhymes. <br /><br /><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Both Mark and Adrian mentioned that they already write poetry,
they use it as a method to nut things out, and they use it in an attempt to woo
and communicate with women. Mark is quite skilled, literate, fluent. His prison
swagger is practised, and we had specifically asked him to come along to the
groups as he had some sway amongst other inmates. We asked him if he could help
recruit for the group. While the future sessions attracted inmates with all
levels of literacy, we are primarily seeking people for whom literacy is a
challenge. <br /><br /><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Adrian writes songs and suggests that his literacy struggle
is profound but we’re not sure; his tests reveal an ambiguity. He has told us
eagerly that he is a musician, a songwriter, though whether these songs are
written down or not is unclear. They’re both smart, though Mark has a more
formal education. Andrew is quiet, tough, an element of friendliness and
interest that is diluted by wariness. I’d be wary too - some new eager
employee, here to help (that’s me). Andrew is quieter, though he explained the
lengths that he went to at school to avoid having to read out loud (he’d make
excuses, fake sickness). He still actively engages in discussions. <br /><br /><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We agree on some group agreement around behaviour, including
some parameters around swearwords (attached) and then dive into what Slam Poetry
actually is, what makes Slam different to Shakespeare, or to the dusty window
sills of reluctant poets reading their words aloud. <br /><br /><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The proximity in style to hip hop battles is a good way in,
though we focus on Slam’s ability to make social change, and to give a voice to
causes overlooked and communities disenfranchised. It is also about being
heard, captivating the audience and providing good old entertainment. Slam,
this contemporary iteration of performance poetry, has grown into an
international movement with competitions happening all around the world,
including in Tasmania. So what is Slam poetry? Slam, it seems, while known in
theory, and known in terms of rappers and rhymers, is a new word for this
group. And while poetry has been spoken aloud, from the balladeers, to the
storytellers to the spokespeople for centuries, this incarnation – Slam - is a
particular form of performance poetry that began in Chicago in the 1980s. <br />
<br />
None of these fellas had experienced slam poetry, or were familiar with poetry
in that form – and when asked about what poetry meant to them they had
‘emotional’ and a good way of explaining things to themselves. Andrew stated
that he reads poetry because it explains his own emotions to them.<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
This session, as is the plan for all of them, we shared some
videos from established performance (Slam) poets. To begin we looked at Kate
Tempest, Erfan Daliri and Omar Musa. We talked about Erfan’s anger in ‘The
Things I Hear,’ and the way he harnessed it as if it were a martial art – how
he turned around his despair and called for revolution. We talked about how the
three poets collapse timeframes into a few minutes of performance and how the
poem itself is a prism through which to view the entire universe. We discuss,
loosely, pulling focus and using a personal issue as a metaphor and a way to
interpret the broader world. Their interest is piqued.<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
My challenges will be to keep a weather eye on written
literacy – bring it back to the skills that can be developed on the written
page – and how to improve them. I am learning in this space, glad to be working
with the dedicated LINC Literacy program both for company and professional
guidance. I am also curious as to how we quantify the improvement - or see
tangible improvements. There will be assessments done before and after.<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
So – ideally our first three attendees will have tendrils
and let their poetic energy and interest seep, noisily or quietly, into the
wider community here, and that those with a desire to express, to improve their
written and spoken language, those with a yen for performance or a yen to
create, find this space. I plan to keep it loose around a central structure and
with a clear core and motivation (literacy/creativity and expression) plus the
opportunity to provide a creative mechanism for self-reflection (collateral for
poetry, collateral for any form of writing – writing to get a better
understanding of the self and of the world).<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
How many people will we get next time?<o:p></o:p></div>
<br />Paige Turnerhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10077906706545934589noreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2731443013145354022.post-52370101412617529552018-05-04T10:09:00.000+10:002018-05-04T10:09:02.776+10:00Tales from the Slammer, Vignette 3<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
Access to clean drinking water and a roof over our heads is vital. So is having
access to story, to be able to listen as well as to telling them, and ideally
to write and to read them. To be literate, in other words. This is maybe not crucial
to staying alive, but necessary for a sense of self, and a sense of community.
To be able to tell our own stories helps us nut out our place in the world, to
see how we fit in and to see how we ended up where we are. It can mean a life
that is more understood, more examined. In Tasmania, like any other damaged
first-world state where literacy cleaves the population in two (haves and
have-nots), and where we have been forcibly denied the ancient and living
history of the island, story is even more crucial.<br />
<br />
The decision has been made to explore slam poetry with a small group of inmates
with low literacy levels. While well versed in poetry, and often an
appreciative and exhilarated audience member, I’ve never taught, or even
facilitated slam poetry. The thought that I will also have to write to perform
is intimidating, though I have been rolling the idea around in my head for a
few months and this is a way to make that manifest. A perfect confluence, a
perfect storm. The slam performances I’ve seen are generally revivifying and
energetic. In the performances, issues that may be dry and dour on a normal
telling are given creative voice and poetic licence. <o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Slam is a contrary form of poetry, one that began in
response to reluctant readings by poets who worship a canon – and ones who
palpably did not enjoy reading their work out loud. Slam has been <span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>considered crass and abrasive, an utter show
pony in comparison to the hallowed halls of more traditional forms of poetry,
though this opinion is most often wielded by those dusty old poets, the
reluctant readers. It has also reinvigorated poetry as a form, excited
generations of students and, hopefully, in Risdon, will provide a vehicle to
work with inmates on their literacy. <br />
<br />
Slam poetry offers an empowering opportunity to tell a story in an entertaining
way, it offers the opportunity to make powerful social change through the
stealth vehicle of poetry - and for us, it offers a way to improve literacy of
inmates, and to provide them with a voice. This is a rare opportunity for
members of society who, by dint of their imprisonment (by dint of their crimes)
are voiceless, stereotyped in a system that focusses on the punitive.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
We have placed an ad in the prison rag, and the full time
LINC Literacy Coordinator, my right hand for the duration of this contract, has
begun to actively recruit people who she believes will benefit, and also those
who she believes will be good for the group dynamics.<o:p></o:p></div>

<br />
<a href="https://app.box.com/s/erba2lu7p3pl8xb3po72tdk7rfovythz"><span style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Listen to the full interview here.</span></a><i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;"><a href="https://app.box.com/s/erba2lu7p3pl8xb3po72tdk7rfovythz"> </a></i><br />
<i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Song Keepers</i> is a wonderful
and inspiring documentary about The Central Australian Aboriginal Women’s
Choir, which is made up of four generations of women from five communities in
Central Australia. <br />
Director Naina Sen had the fortune to be invited into one of their rehearsals
and she knew straight away that the story of these women, the choir and a tour
to Germany would make for rich documentary pickings. She knew she was
witnessing something profound.<br />
She was not wrong, The Song Keepers is an inspiring account of this journey
– and the history of what they sing; music that was bought to Central Australia
140 years ago by Lutheran Missionaries, and translated into Western Arrente,
one of the most complex languages in the world within three years. These hymns
are set to Baroque music and the confluence of language that has been spoken
for 40 000 with these deeply spiritual tunes is profound.<br />
<br />
“The reason 32 women wanted to do this film is because they really, really wanted
to share their music and this identity, and this history they are so proud of
with the rest of the country, I think every Australian should see this film
because these women are amongst the most extraordinary human beings you will
ever meet,” said director Naina Sen on her recent visit to Tasmania for the
Hobart premiere of the film.<br />
The film shares a depth of cultural connection through time and space.
Within a few years of the missionaries arriving in the desert, senior Arrente
Law Men, took the music and the gospel, in language to surrounding communities.<br />
‘If you codify language you preserve it, you preserve language, you preserve
culture,” Sen said..<br />
While the Lutheran missionaries left these communities in the early 1980s,
and the men of the communities drifted away from choirs, towards Country Music,
the women’s choirs remained strong. <br />
‘140 year old choral music doesn’t survive without a conscious decision to
retain the music,<br />
‘It can not survive without an incredibly conscious distilling.’<br />
Sen, who grew up in New Delhi, India came to Australia to study film. She thanks
her younger self for being “foolish...brave...whatever it is,” as she travelled
from Melbourne to Darwin and has spent the last decade working in Norther
Australia and the desert.<br />
<br />
Working up there has redefined Australia for her & what it means to call
this country her own "it's an extraordinary privilege to be able to collaborate
with extraordinary artists and musicians and painters who represent the depth
of the oldest continuously living culture in the world in their work, and to
have access to that, to be able to share something, to be able to collaborate
-...." <br />
"To me it is collaborating with people I have longstanding
relationships with, who I love, who are my friends, and through whom I have a
completely different understaning of this country, I am very privileged to do
what I do, to me it is collaboration between artists”.<br />

<span style="color: #333333; font-size: 14.0pt;">May seems that it should be a
slowing month, one where we wend our ways a little closer to the fire, stay a
little longer in our beds. It’s busy though, in the world of stories, of books
and writing in Tasmania, who has time for hibernation? – well, maybe just in
bed for one more chapter, one more chapter.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

running through Tasmania and a novel very distinctly of this island, with our
shores and innards pulsing through the pages. It will be launched by Richard
Flanagan at Fullers on May 3, 5.30pm. Mark my words, Robbie will be heralded as
the new Flanagan.<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
On the first day, I walked around the edges of the tall,
thick, whitewashed walls. There are sparse, newly planted native gardens and
the prison itself is surrounded by bush covered hills and rocky outcrops. There
is a whole suburb that wraps itself around the back of the prison. Nestled and
a little incongruous. Strangely, on the path from the staff carpark to the
entrance are some convict cut sandstone stairs that lead to the bottom of the
wall. There are no doors there – a strange throwback to the time when this
whole island was a prison and those large, heavy bricks were cut by the
indentured labour, my ancestors, who we call ‘the convicts.’<br />
<br />
I consider the myths of this place, Risdon Prison, anonymous and impenetrable. It
crept into my childhood via the media with the harshest and most elaborate
crimes, crimes that inform the psyche of all Tasmanians, crimes that in our
small town are still too ripe and raw - unhealed tissue - to drop into casual
conversation. Crimes that we still feel the sting of. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The individual voices here are distinct and proud and
personal and more often than not, damaged. They are fathers and husbands and
sons, they are struggling with their lives, their incarceration and their
crimes. They are individuals and their kid’s names tattooed on their arms belie
how much they love them.<br />
<br />
The Prisoner Education and Training (PEAT) section is lit with fluorescent
lights and, although one of the rabbit warren training rooms has natural light,
to work here in winter must be dispiriting. It’s summer now and the rumbling
too-cold aircon makes a pervasive soundscape. <br />
<br />
There is also an entire library, the Risdon LINC, which is a wonderful thing.
It must be a bubble within the broader prison complex and, while the inmates
bring their tussles and torments in with them, I can only imagine how the rehab
unit feels, how maximum might feel, how an individual cell may feel. We are all
just big pieces of tofu, taking on the flavours of those around us, the aromas
of the space we inhabit. How does a space define and inform us? </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
I am doing this as a Writer in Residence and hope to use
creative writing and storytelling as a vehicle to move them into a space where
reading and writing is easier, where verbal communication (not with fists) is
owned, powerful and even progressive. I hope to open some tiny creative cracks,
to help them find tools to tell their own stories, to place themselves within a
broader narrative. To pull focus and to tell their tales with a distinctive
beauty. I have not yet held the first session.</div>

<br />
<div class="MsoNormal">
The induction happened a few weeks before my first day at
work, an induction like so many other jobs; a room of screens, an internal
database with a series of multiple choice questions. The questions included the
standard ones that any work place would have; about protocols and standards and
what to expect, but also many unique to this new place of employment, Risdon
Prison, where I was to work on a grant project for LINC Tasmania, the library,
and their dedicated literacy service.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br />
I have been contracted by LINC Tasmania as a Writer in Residence at Risdon
Prison, through their far reaching literacy program. Literacy is one of the
most significant and important issues affecting Tasmania right now. In
Tasmania, half of us struggle to read and write. A report by the ABS for
2011-2012 shows that 49% (aged between 15-74) are functionally illiterate. This
means that half of the people who live with on this island do not have some of
the most practical skills to get by in the modern world. These are things like
filling out forms or reading straightforward instructions. </div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
Literacy, in terms
of readin’ and writin’ is one thing, social literacy, the ability to ‘read’ a
situation and to ‘write’ a response is another. In prison it is worse. Inside
the prison the 49% functional illiteracy increases to approximately 80% with
low skill levels in one or more domains of literacy – reading, writing or
numeracy. There are myriad reasons for this; including intergenerational
illiteracy, less access to educational resources, contempt for education from those
the system has failed in the past and the seemingly entrenched and often
ignored class system in Tasmania.<o:p></o:p></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
The Writer in Residence role in this iteration was a blank
canvas. In my public life speak long and loudly (not long enough, not loudly
enough) about the need for all of us to have the tools to tell our stories, and
how, whether through spoken or written literacy we can grow a sense of self and
of community. More often than not I am speaking to a literate audience. This
role affords the opportunity to work specifically with those who struggle with
literacy and to hopefully let some light pour in to a world of reading and
writing, and to celebrate literature and the written word. The program would also
need clear outcomes, and a tangible improvement in the ability and confidence
of inmates to read and write.<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>Where to
begin!?<o:p></o:p></div>

<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">If you’re reading this, you
can read, yep. It may seem like a silly statement, but being able to read makes
you part of the 50% of Tasmanians who can read and write. Only 50% of us are
functionally literate, which is of significant concern for all of us. What to
do? There are lots of things, but to begin the drip feed, start reading on the
bus, reading in public. Be a public celebration of reading, a very embodiment
of reading – and volunteer as an <a href="https://26ten.tas.gov.au/Pages/default.aspx">adult literacy tutor through 26Ten</a>.<br />
<br />
You can also attend other celebrations of reading and writing, such as the
launch of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Word Fall</i> by Betty
McKenzie-Tubb at the Hobart Bookshop on April 12 at 5.30pm. This is her new
collection of poetry, following on from a book of memoir of her last 80 or so
years. She has a love and mastery of language, and as poet Robyn Mathison
notes, she was moved to tears, deep contemplation or laughter as she read these
poems.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Tasmanian writer Shirley
Patton will have her northern launch, following a successful Hobart event in
March. Her new novel, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The Secrets We Keep</i>
is a </span><span style="color: #313131; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">compelling novel of the transcendental love of children and the truth's
unwillingness to stay hidden. This is happening on April 12, 6pm at Petrarch’s
Bookshop in Launceston. </span><a href="https://www.facebook.com/events/764450100412147/?hc_location=ufi" target="_blank"><span style="background: white; color: #365899; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">https://www.facebook.com/events/764450100412147/</span></a><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="color: #313131; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">On April 18 I am heading to
Launceston to do a lunchtime talk for the National Book Council of Tasmania.
This is open to the public and I’d love you to come along and say hello. Who am
I when I’m at home? – well, Editor in Chief of Transportation Press, erstwhile
non-fiction Editor of Open Road Review, South Asia’s leading mag of literature
and culture, reviewer, writer, columnist, and recently I’ve had the great
pleasure to be working with lower literacy inmates at Risdon Prison as Writer
in Residence, doing slam poetry. April 18, 1pm on the second floor of the
Launceston LINC, this is a free event.<br />
<br />
</span><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Reading
for the Revolution returns in April, this time with readings and discussion
around the concept ‘democracy’ – which is something which history teaches us,
time and time again that we should not take forgranted. The next one is taking
place at 7.30am (yes, in the morning sleepy heads) on Tuesday, April 10
upstairs at the Food Store in South Hobart. Readings include ‘How Politics
Works in Australia’ a recent essay in <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">The
Monthly</i> by Scott Ludlum, and Tim Lo Surdo’s discussion from Democracy in
Colour. For further information contact the inspirational Millie Rooney –
millie.rooney@gmail.com<br /><br /><o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="margin-left: 36.0pt;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">I’m getting conflicting
information about the ‘officialness’ of the announcement – but Ellen Harvey has
updated her Twitter profile to note she is the new director of the <a href="https://www.taswriters.org/">TasmanianWriters’ Centre</a>. I imagine this means that contracts are signed and she is on
her way to relocate to Tasmania for the role. This is exciting times for a
centre which has a grand opportunity to be the go-to space for writers and
readers of all ilks, diversities, propensities and desires. I wish her all the
best for her new role. UPDATE APRIL 7- her Twitter profile no longer includes this in her bio. Oh! The intrigue! Stay tuned, I understand the Centre are issuing a press release this weekend or coming Monday.<br style="mso-special-character: line-break;" />

<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">It's excellent to hear that
the first two titles from Emily Conolon’s exciting new interactive children’s
series, The Freedom Fighters, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Break your
Chains</i> and <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Touch the Sun</i>, are being
launch at Fullers on April 7<sup>th</sup> at 2.30pm. Emily is a Tasmanian of
the Year, humanitarian as well as being an author, and these books offer the
opportunity for young readers (9+) to choose their own destinies, putting
themselves in the shoes of migrants and refugee children and experiencing the
twists, turns and life or death choices of finding your way to a new home in Australia.</span><span style="color: #333333; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"> This is a free event, but please make sure you RSVP to </span><a href="mailto:rsvp@fullersbookshop.com.au"><span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">rsvp@fullersbookshop.com.au</span></a><span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;"><o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Fullers
is also hosting the launch of <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">From
Limerick to Campbell Town to Detroit</i> by Meredith Hodgson. This book traces
the remarkable life of Eliza Williams who was transported to Van Diemen’s Land
for theft in 1851, where she served as indentured labour for John Leake at his
magnificent estate Rosedale. Her letters have survived and they tell a
fascinating tale of the journey from convict woman, to prosperity. The author
will be in conversation with historian Kristyn Harman on Thursday, April 12 at
5.30. (see also the review of Kristyn Harman’s latest book, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Cleansing the Colony</i>, in this issue).<o:p></o:p></span></div>

<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Private

<span style="background: white; color: #1d2129; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14.0pt; line-height: 107%;">A
little ahead of myself this month, but a significant event on any reader’s
calendar should be the launch of Robbie Arnott’s first novel, <i style="mso-bidi-font-style: normal;">Flames</i>. The book will be launched by MAN
Booker Prize winner, Richard Flanagan at Fullers on May 3, at 5.30pm. I cannot
wait, this book is already being lauded as a surrealist version of the island
state, and what some are calling “one of the finest works of Australian
literature in recent years”. Woot. <br />

<div class="MsoNormal" style="line-height: normal; margin-bottom: .0001pt; margin-bottom: 0cm;">
<span style="font-family: "arial" , sans-serif; font-size: 14pt;">Recently,
I read a disdainful comment regarding mindfulness and storytelling, suggesting
that they are both flash-in-the-pan fads. Oh Disdainful Commentator, how wrong
you are – both of these activities, practices and wisdoms are already long
enduring and it is with delight that I point you to a twenty-first century
iteration of storytelling - the <a href="http://storyislandproject.org/" target="_blank">Story Island Project</a>’s free, fun storytelling
activities for young people at the <a href="http://moonahtasteoftheworld.com.au/" target="_blank">Moonah Taste of the World </a>Festival on Sunday
25 March. Activities will include live storytelling sessions from notable
Tasmanian children's authors, book-making challenges and opportunities for
young people to explore new writing ideas. Come along and pick up a free kids'
storytelling activity booklet to take home! Follow the Story Island Project on
<a href="https://www.facebook.com/storyislandproject/" target="_blank">Facebook for more information</a>.</span></div>

<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Review by Rachel Edwards</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<br /></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">Eon is an exquisite word, three beautiful
letters combined to precisely describe time which is otherwise beyond our
abilities to comprehend, or ‘a measure of geological time: an indefinitely long
period; forever”.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">And this is a beautiful book. Subtitled ‘the
story of fossils,’ it is a large hardcover that roams through the formation of
the planet and subsequent arrival of many forms of life, right down to us
humans, right at the very end of eons and eons of life and changes to this
planet.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">The illustrations in this exceptional book
are one of the aspects that really make it book sing. They are hand drawn and
painted by the author, with an element of collage about them as well. Illustrated
in earthy, muted colours the rich drawings convey an element of what was
changing as the earth aged and moved throughout the different eras.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">A mere double spread of pages is dedicated
to each major period in the earth’s history; Triassic 251– 200 million years
ago, Ordovician/Silurian 488 – 418 million years ago, Archaen, 5 billion years
ago, Neogene, 23 million years – 5000 years ago, you get the picture. For each
of these periods the author has written a few words, in a delicately rhyming
verse and one that has mostly dodged the bullet of cloying. For example, the
page of Paleogene, 65 – 23 million years ago begins “On cooling Earth,
creatures with wombs who could hide survived, and plants with blooms and grasses
thrived”. The rhyme makes it perfect to read to children, and even as an adult
reading the rhyme provides the warming repetitive nature of a drum beat – a
strange comfort. It is not oversimplified.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">The book, while perfect for children by
dint of its accessible language is such a beauty that it will also appeal to
adult readers. Also, considering that it tackles such a massive subject, one
that often seems arcane and simply too big to get a grasp of, it provides a
simplified, broken down yet in no way condescending account of how the planet was
formed. It also shows humans for the flash-in-the-pan beings we are, within the
entire geological time frame of the planet.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">At the end of the book the author provides
the information in a different manner; a straightforward timeline that begins
five billion years ago, the Age of Molecules and finishes two million years ago
during the Age of Diverse Life. To see the planet quantified in this manner,
showing as it does life on land ‘arriving’ more recently than 500 years ago,
and humans even more recently is another effective way to convey this
scientific information without appearing didactic. There is also a glossary for
those inclined to deepen their knowledge</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span lang="EN-US">This is a book that bridges an art/science
divide with ease and beauty. It conveys an epic amount of information, covering
millions of years, as well as being an object that is beautiful to behold –
and to hold. </span></div>

Parkyn is a rich historical novel that tells the true story of Marie Louise
Giradin, a woman who, disguised as a man sailed aboard the Recherche in the
late 1700s and is likely the first white woman to step foot on the island now
known as Tasmania.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 107%;">Louis Giradin,
as she becomes known, flees a France that is caught in the grip of revolution,
and she is also forced to leave behind a baby son. The novel is faithful to the
passage of the vessel, which was accompanied by the Esperance and was operating
under instruction both to find La Perouse, whose expedition was seemingly lost
– as well as to conduct scientific research. These two competing goals provide
a clear point of tension in the novel, and the characters of the military
command of the vessel and the increasingly eccentric behaviour of the
scientists aboard juxtapose each other well. Parkyn has a background in science
(she trained as a freshwater ecologist) and the attention paid to the
scientific knowledge and practice of the time is sensitive and genuinely
engaging.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 107%;">The French
explorers on board – both scientific and military have their names are
intertwined in our Tasmanian history, D’entrecastreaux, Kermandec, and Labillardiere
amongst them. One of the strengths of this well written novel, is the
development of the characters. The story is told from Giradin’s point of view,
which offers a rare historical perspective from a woman. The scientists,
captains and crew mates are all fleshed out and given voices and identifying
characteristics, Labillardiere the scientist who reveals himself as difficult
and driven in particular. It is fascinating, given the proximity in part to
these men’s and this woman’s story that we have in Tasmania, to read them as
real human beings, not just names of bays and headlands and seascapes.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 107%;">What Giradin had
been involved with in France to cause her to flee the country is one of the
many compelling parts that drives this story. The revelation that she had grown
up outside the wall of Versaille -<span style="mso-spacerun: yes;"> </span>her
father worked as a gardener there - and her involvement with the nascent revolution
are fascinating counterpoints to the journey on the sea and what was involved
in her role, as the ship’s steward, as well as what she had to do to keep
herself disguised.</span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal" style="background: white;">
<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "Arial",sans-serif; font-size: 9.5pt; line-height: 107%;">This is a book
that tells of a significant moment in this history of the island we now call
Tasmania, as well as a significant moment internationally: the French
revolution, scientific discovery and research as well. It is a well told tale
of a fascinating woman and an intriguing and sometimes terrifying journey on
the sea. Stephanie Parkyn is to be congratulated on her first novel, one which
is sure to find a wide, and satisfied audience. </span></div>

This morning I had the wonderful opportunity to sit down with Maxine Beneba Clarke and <a href="https://app.box.com/s/yycyzbysc5ctjv8jxfpclmtw0zwzdni6" target="_blank">discuss her autobiography <i><b>The Hate Race</b> </i></a>and her upcoming spoken word sets at MonaFoma. We talked about racism in Australia where "he conversation about race is so behind - the minute you say the word race or racism people just start screaming," and how she believes (and so do I) that some of the answers lie in artistic storytelling and that libraries offer an equalising access to knowledge.<br />
<i>The Hate Race</i> winded me again and again. May it do the same to you, may it transform you in a manner that is irrevocable.<br />

May this gentle summer wrap you in some sweet tendrils,
afford you relaxation and also some dedicated reading time. And a hammock and
some proper time immersed in the sea. And sunrises and stone fruit, and
strawberries. Juicy, sun warmed strawberries. And peace of mind, and some love,
too, while we are about it.<o:p></o:p></div>

I have been hanging around with Vladimir Putin, in the form
of <i>The Man Without a Face, the unlikely
rise of Vladimir Putin </i>by Masha Gessen and balancing this with <i>Women and Power</i> by Mary Beard. <i>Women and Power</i> is a book tiny in
structure but huge in content, tracing misogyny back through Western culture
and explains why women have had such a hard time getting heard, with culturally
endemic silencing and mocking of women’s voices. Beard is a historical scholar
of significance and she explains how abuse and tirades against women on Twitter
are the continuum of Ancient Greece’s Aristophanes’ mockery of women’s voices. Both
of these books, as well as Masha Gessen’s latest <i>The Future is History, How Totalitarianism Reclaimed Russia, </i>are
setting a summer reading tone for me.<o:p></o:p></div>

south. I’m busting to hear Maxine Beneba Clarke, award winning poet and author,
most recently of <i>The Hate Race</i>,
perform some slam poetry during the festival. Slam’s a powerful form that takes
poetry to a whole new universe, where words crystallised through the filter of
form are taken into a performative space. <br /><br /><o:p></o:p></div>

crew, in partnership with <i><a href="https://islandmag.com/" target="_blank">Island</a></i> mag
will return on January 11 at the delicious Salamanca Arts Centre. The topic
will be ‘Property’ and panellists will be announced soon. Bright Thinking is a
monthly philo café that Marc Sautet (founder of the first philo café) would
approve of: one that is participatory rather than dictatorial. A topic is
chosen ahead of time for each event to allow attendees to prepare; the hope is
that people participate and put forward their point of view. It is open to all
thinkers who are looking for solutions to the fundamental problems faced by
humankind. For more information, check out the <a href="https://islandmag.com/" target="_blank">New Philosopher website.</a><o:p></o:p></span></div>

Review – Rachel Edwards<br />
<br />
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">“Suddenly a
gray rock becomes ashen or clouded with dream. A ring around a rock is luck. To
find a red rock is to discover earthblood”, writes Lidia Yuknavitch in her eviscerating
memoir <i>The Chronology of Water</i>.
Yuknavitch seeks to wade through her grief by surrounding herself with rocks.<o:p></o:p></span></div>
<div class="MsoNormal">
<span style="font-size: 12.0pt; line-height: 107%;">Rocks,
despite their profound variety are often used as a symbol of heaviness and lack
of movement and, outside of geology and childlike wonder, their poetry can be lost
or ignored.</span><br />
<br />
Rocks, despite their profound variety are often used as a symbol of heaviness and lack of movement and, outside of geology and childlike wonder, their poetry can be lost or ignored.<br />
<br />
Lost Rocks, created by A Published Event (Justy Phillips and Margaret Woodward) ignites a creative fascination with a series of rocks and minerals and, in their own words “is an accumulative event of mineralogical, metaphysical and metallurgical telling.”<br />
<br />
Lost Rocks is also a collection of forty books that are being published, slowly, over four years. The project was conceptually inspired when Phillips and Woodward found a discarded rock board at the Tip Shop in Glenorchy. They have commissioned forty books in response to these rocks. The latest four books (of eight released so far) are Crystal Bone by Greg Lehman, Marble by Ally Bisshop, Conglomerate by Ben Walter, and Basalt by Ross Gibson. The books share a clean and simple design; white paperbacks with red silhouettes of the rock on the cover. They are small in stature, have delicate newsprint pages and they wear the process of publishing almost literally on their sleeves, bringing the formal structure of a book to the fore, including a page titled ‘colophon’. The colophon is a publisher’s device to either provide a decorative reference to the publisher, or simply the information legally required when publishing a book.<br />
<br />
Prominent Tasmanian writer and thinker Greg Lehman’s Crystal Bone is both a deeply personal story as well as a devastating austere account of this rock and the almost centrifugal importance of it for this island’s first people. It includes diverse writing styles and a poetic recounting of a story of a tyrelore, an island wife. The images that accompany the ‘Crystal’ chapter - simple line drawings of flints, sculpted for blade and palms and annotated with the name of the place from where they have been removed is quietly devastating. The illustrations provide a desolate contrast to the lost stories of these rocks.<br />
<br />
Ross Gibson’s Basalt describes the motion and movement of lava which then becomes basalt. In the text he returns to the paradoxical movement of this rock; the pulses of a lava flow still evident where it is found in nature. Gibson is an academic and a poet and while Basalt is a fascinating read, it has a didactic tone and there is something about the melding of poetry and geological process that did not mesh well for this reader.<br />
<br />
Ben Walter, whose continuously transcendental writing tackles the rock conglomerate. He uses his element elegantly, as a literary device. A walker falls and hits his head on a “fist of conglomerate”. It is a raw story of a death in the Tasmanian wilderness, an inadvertent tragedy that occurs during a walk with mates. Walter writes the bush like few others down here, his words lithe and with little sentimentality, poetically descriptive.<br />
<br />
Ally Bisshop has sculpted a tale from marble – its history, magic and the the numinous space it inhabits for gods and men. She talks about its mining and like Lehman utilises a range of stories of styles to capture this heavy rock.<br />
<br />
These books are part of a beautiful publishing work of art, one that travels through geological and human time – a slow burn, drip feed of small, versatile publications. There is something about the Lost Rocks collection seems to inspire writers to enter new territory; cross genres and enter exciting literary spaces. It is a brilliant concept and I anticipate the forthcoming books with a sense of exhilaration<br />

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12.6667px;">I have recently had the good fortune to experience the wonders of reading and writing in our broader region. I travelled to Bali for the <a href="http://apwriters.org/wp-content/uploads/2017/09/APWT_Program_Final.pdf" target="_blank">Asia Pacific Writers and Translators’ gathering at Ganesha University</a>, which dovetailed perfectly into the <a href="http://www.ubudwritersfestival.com/" target="_blank">Ubud Writers Festival</a>. These two events, experienced in true tropical grandeur were replete with conversations and readings and the most delightful international cross pollination. I hope to bring some of the crumpled frangipani and deep thinking back to our island – and I will definitely be bringing Indonesians who rumble censorship and Iranians who purr Persian poetry with the most dramatic flair. Watch this space.</span></span><br />

Part performance library, part contemporary artwork, up to one hundred books in any genre will be published, culminating in a month-long event in September 2018, in which visitors will be invited to use the library – digesting its holdings of one hundred books into a single ‘digest’. The People’s Digest will then be performed by memory for a public audience.

<span style="color: #222222; font-family: "arial" , sans-serif;"><span style="font-size: 12.6667px;">I recently finished working with a ripper group of people living with memory loss, the Monday mob from Dementia Australia. The only common factor in this group of diverse people is that they live with younger onset dementia. We published a beautiful book called <i>Badgers and Porcupines</i>, working with young writer Lily Stojevscki. Lily translated some of their stories for the page and the book, which tells of love and loss and rock concerts and ducks and tennis and family is available from Dementia Australia. I mention this because another book being launched in November touches on memory loss, in this case in the form of Alzheimer’s (one of many forms of dementia). Written by Clodagh and Roy Jones and designed by the wonderful Julie Hawkins, <i>Roy and Clodagh, Living with Dementia</i>, will be launched at Fullers on November 2. The book provides an insight into what it’s like to live with memory loss, when many people in this situation are not able to articulate their feelings.</span></span></div>

re-imbue this word with its truly inclusive essence.</span></div>
