Issue 19

Autumn!

And welcome to Issue 19 of StylusLit where we interview Australian poets, Mike Ladd and Jane Frank. 

We include poems by Jason Beale, Megan Cartwirght, B. R. Dionysius, Marcelle Freiman, Stephanie Green, Mike Ladd, Harriet Manasa, Mark O’Flynn, Ynes Sanz, Jo Skinner, Barnaby Smith, and Carl Walsh. 

There’s short fiction from Dorothy Johnston, Angela Townsend and creative non-fiction from Malia McCarrick.

Finally, in addition to reviews of Jane Frank’s Gardening on Mars; Kathryn Fry’s To Speak of Grasses, and Ed Southorn’s Pareidolia, we have included a review of Phil Brown’s memoir, Confessions of a Minor Poet, because of his significant and generous contribution to the arts in Australia, and his long-standing support of the vibrant poetry community.

We have implemented a new reviews system and you can read about it at New Books to Review.

Have fun,
Rosanna Licari
