Sydney Review of Books: 2-book bundle

Second City is a showcase of the diverse literary talents that make Sydney’s Western Suburbs such a fertile region for writers.

The Australian Face collects some of the best essays published in the Sydney Review of Books on Australian fiction, poetry and non-fiction. The essays in this anthology are contributions to the ongoing argument about the condition and purpose and evolving shape of Australian literature. They reflect the ways in which discussions about the state of the literary culture are constantly reaching beyond themselves to consider wider cultural and political issues.
