Abstract
It took me almost six years to research and write my most recent book, The Street Sweeper, a novel that deals with, among other things, history and various kinds of racism. One of the things I did for my mental health as much as for my physical health during those six years was to jog or at least walk, pretty much every day.
期刊介绍:
Meanjin was founded in Brisbane by Clem Christesen (the name, pronounced Mee-an-jin, is derived from an Aboriginal word for the finger of land on which central Brisbane sits) in 1940. It moved to Melbourne in 1945 at the invitation of the University of Melbourne. It currently receives funding from the university, the Literature Fund of the Australia Council for the Arts, CAL and Arts Victoria as well as receiving vital support through subscriptions and other sales.
