June 2023, no. 454
Welcome to the June issue of ABR! This month ABR examines politics and influence from the media to federal and international politics. Major features include David Rolph on Lachlan Murdoch versus Crikey, Mark Kenny on the Albanese government’s first year in office, Patrick Mullins on a new book on Scott Morrison, and John Zubrzycki on Narendra Modi’s new strategy for India. Raelene Frances reviews Ross McMullin’s new group biography Life So Full of Promise and Joan Beaumont reflects on the 1943 bombing of Berlin. Also in the issue, Robyn Archer takes us behind the scenes in our new ‘Backstage’ interview series, Kate Lilley pays tribute to John Tranter, and we publish the runner-up in the 2023 Calibre Essay Prize ‘Child Adjacent’ by Bridget Vincent.
