Summary

With his trademark eloquence and humour, Robert Dessaix, one of Australia's eminent writers, tackles humbug in the modern world; the tide of mumbo jumbo where words fall short of what they mean and motivations are not always what they appear. MUP's new series Little Books on Big Themes pairs leading Australian thinkers and cultural figures with some of the big themes in life. Each author's 10,000-word take on a chosen theme is presented as an eminently collectable hardback.

Author Biography

Robert Dessaix is a writer, interviewer, translator, and broadcaster. He is the author of Corfu, A Mother's Disgrace, Night Letters, and the travel memoir Twilight of Love. He is the translator of works by Chekhov, Dostoyevsky, and Turgenev.
