Meanjin Vol 74, No 1

In the March 2015 issue of Meanjin Melanie Joosten reflects on the work of artist Ella Dreyfus and asks why we so rarely see depictions of elderly bodies, Paul Daley follows the life of Private Douglas Grant and questions the existing narrative about Indigenous service people, Ben Stubbs travels to Christmas Island to understand the place behind the headlines and we present a Gallery of photographic works from the brilliant James Tylor. The issue is packed with exceptional new fiction, memoir and poetry from the best and brightest of Australian writing.
