Book excerpt: Excerpt from Melba's Gift Book of Australian Art and Literature For me, personally, the remembrance of that night makes a link, that can never be broken, between my native homeland and the country where my life as an artist had its beginning. To the Belgians, who welcomed me long ago, Australia was a land of fable; but they opened their hearts and took me in. Could an artist - could a woman - ever forget such an experience?

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Golden Gifts: An Australian Tale Beneath the hard crust of earth, deeply embedded below its surface, wandering in strange and curious veins, hidden from the human eye by huge masses of strata, lies the golden ore, so plentift scattered through our sister colony (more sparingly bestowed upon our own), which needs the aid of pick and shovel to upturn, and disinter, and reveal - requires the hand of the diligent, the strength of the strong, and the wisdom of the wise to bring it to the light of day; how gladly is that strength bestowed, how is the utmost diligence expended, how is man's wisdom heavily taxed, and how well is all that care, and labour, and anxiety repaid by the brilliant golden nuggets obtained. But it is not of material gold we have written, dear readers, or to which we desire your attention. Our Golden Gifts are not to be sought for in the surface of the earth; they are around you on every side - they are within you - they are above The gifts are yours.

The heart Of a deep mine I A gold mine, with all its dim and rugged corridors, its tunnels and windings, lighted only by a dull taper here and there. There is no one at work, for it is Christmas Eve. Yet the underground region is not altogether untenanted. One man Whose duty it is to watch the place, until relieved on the morrow, lies coiled up asleep in one of the long drives. He is a young man, not tall, but strongly made, and with limbs like another Hercules. On account of his great strength and a certain good temper combined, his mates call him, Samson the Nugget. For what length of time the Nugget slumbered on this good Christmas Eve will never be known. Certain it is that he suddenly Opened his eyes and beheld one of the biggest, and withal one of the ugliest, hulking fellows he had ever seen standing over him. The Nugget was a brave youth, but fear began to take possession of him as he looked at the intruder-a giant in stature, with a huge, ﬂat head upon his shoulder, and a mouth as large.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from An Australian Rip Van Winkle: And Other Pieces; Being a Sketch-Book After the Style of Washington Irving Looking back, we suppose Jake was a man of quite forty. He was a beautiful rider, and carried a small stock-whip, a weapon which, like the finished swordsman of old, he would seldom use. He never varied in his dress or address. There was something soothing in his Slow voice, but some times - very seldom - his remarks were not exactly coherent. Perhaps this was owing to his solitary life - the life of his choice. Every year-we think it was every year - he would take a month's holiday, sometimes riding Off to the capital on his horse, sometimes by Coach. What he did with himself on these occasions was not quite Clear. On one of them he informed me he went to Tasmania to see the caves, but finding his bush dress and manners not suitable to some fine company in which he found himself, took careful pencil notes of the Clothing of a member of the party, purchasing exactly Similar articles as near as he could remem ber from neck-tie to hat, and restricting himself to one single ornamental cup of tea who had been used to swig from his capacious billy-can. He also, he said, Stopped himself in a habit he had of running down everything he saw, as it seemed to worry the party For the time, he would half sadly reﬂect, he seemed to pass comparatively well as a sort of harmless companionable joker.

Book excerpt: The beloved and award-winning novel now available in a new format with a great new cover! When Wesley Boone writes a poem for his high school English class, some of his classmates clamor to read their poems aloud too. Soon they're having weekly poetry sessions and, one by one, the eighteen students are opening up and taking on the risky challenge of self-revelation. There's Lupe Alvarin, desperate to have a baby so she will feel loved. Raynard Patterson, hiding a secret behind his silence. Porscha Johnson, needing an outlet for her anger after her mother OD's. Through the poetry they share and narratives in which they reveal their most intimate thoughts about themselves and one another, their words and lives show what lies beneath the skin, behind the eyes, beyond the masquerade.

Book excerpt: 'In this highly readable biography of Nellie Melba...Robert Wainwright tells the story of the girl with the incredible voice who, by sheer force of her personality and power of her decibels, took the operatic world by storm and managed to escape from her violent husband' Ysenda Maxtone Graham, DAILY MAIL Nellie Melba is remembered as a squarish, late middle-aged woman dressed in furs and large hats, an imperious Dame whose voice ruled the world for three decades and inspired a peach and raspberry dessert. But to succeed, she had to battle social expectations and misogyny that would have preferred she stay a housewife in outback Queensland rather than parade herself on stage. She endured the violence of a bad marriage, was denied by scandal a true love with the would-be King of France, and suffered for more than a decade the loss of her only son - stolen by his angry, vengeful father. Despite these obstacles, she built and maintained a career as an opera singer and businesswoman on three continents which made her one of the first international superstars. Award-winning biographer Robert Wainwright presents a very different portrait of this great diva, one that celebrates both her musical contributions and her rich and colourful personal life.
