For the love of reading.
Every quarter, Underline will bring together extracts, interviews, articles, short stories, reflections and much more to celebrate brilliant writing in its many forms.
Designed to be dog-eared and devoured at your leisure, this is a chance to pause and delve a little further into some of the world’s finest literature, and the minds behind it.
This issue includes a feature on Richard Flanagan and his new book First Person, an article on 50 years of Picnic At Hanging Rock, extracts from The First Casualty by Peter Greste and The High Places by Fiona McFarlane and a collection of Blue-Ribbon Reads.
We hope you enjoy leafing through these pages as much as we did compiling them.
