I enjoyed this the most out of the books of hers I've read so far. The cataloging keywords are: anecdotes, attitudes, family relationships, women authors, political and social views; all apposite, and here there is no claim to anything beyond indulging the need to write.
I particularly enjoyed:
- Writing Home.
- Regions of Thick-Ribbed Ice, an account of her trip to Antarctica.
- Tower Diary, of post-breakup trauma in Bellevue Hill.
- Melbourne's Famous Water, of returning to Melbourne (home).
- A Spy in the House of Excrement.
... and pretty much the rest of it. She writes in an intimate style that would make for a decent blog.
