Gayle’s Reviews > The Best Australian Stories 2017 > Status Update

One terrible story. Some men should never write women. I looked up the author and unsurprised to see he hasn’t published anything else.
Overall this has been an excellent collection however.

There’s a lot of good short stories in here. The most disappointing thing is when you look up an author of a story you love, only to find there’s no more!

What a great anthology! ‘Dreamers’ by Melissa Lucashenko gave me goosebumps- what a beautifully written story.

I’ve had this since it came out and I am glad to finally get around to it. Off to a strong start with the first story by Tony Birch, which was just beautiful. I’m excited for the rest of them!
