Product Description
Product Description
"The Devil in Brisbane is an anthology alive with all of the spontaneity, cunning, wild imagination, and artifice of its namesake. Zoran Zivković has conjured thirty tales of sardonic splendor from Australian writers both new and more established. In this case, the Devil is most definitely in the details."- Jeffrey Ford, author of The Portrait of Mrs. Charbuque

A Devil of an Idea .-), Mar 31 2010
By Brizdaz - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: The Devil in Brisbane (Paperback)
A great idea from Zoran Zivkovic to get the students of a writer's masterclass held by the editor at the 2004 Brisbane Writers Festival to write a short story in one hour about a meeting between a writer and the devil,set in Brisbane.He then published all those stories and some others and released them in this Anthology.
I found it can get a bit much if you try reading too many stories in one sitting, as they are all naturally variations on the same theme.Some are good,some could have been good(with a little help)and some are best forgotten.
Writer's should love reading through this book and trying to ignore that little critical and bitchy voice whispering through their heads telling how much better of a story they could have written.
My favourites are*
*THE WRITER WHO COULD HAVE BEEN DOSTOEVSKY , Geoffrey Maloney
*ICE CUBE , Chris McMahon
*A BARGAIN WITH THE WRITER , Michael S. Martin
*TIME TO WRITE , Jason Nahrung
*GUNSLINGER , Lee Battersby
Listmania!
