In this fully revised and updated edition of this highly successful title, ROSS TERRILL offers a vibrant and fascinating portrait of Australia today. The Australians garnered glowing reviews both in Australia and overseas when it was first published in 1987. It is a lively, personal, accessible and anecdote-filled snapshot of the Australian people at the start of the 21st century: the nation, economy, society, culture and values; the cities, the outback; and the evolution of our national identity. Frank interviews with leading contemporary Australians such as Prime Minister John Howard, former Victorian Premier Jeff Kennett and NSW Premier Bob Carr add unique and authoritative insights into Australia past and present. As well as being a must-have for foreign visitors in 2000, it will appeal to readers of The Fatal Shore, Tom Keneally's The Great Shame, and, because it will also deal with major themes and ideas, buyers of Amongst the Barbarians by Paul Sheehan. International praise for the first edition: 'Perceptive and readable' - The Bulletin 'A candid and provocative book' - Sydney Morning Herald 'One of the best portraits of Australians in recent years' - Chicago Tribune 'Part travel book, part history and part autobiography ... full of interest' - Sunday Telegraph (London)

A meditation on the burden and joy of inheritance, and the strange power of the objects and keepsakes that connect us 'This is how I became interested in things. In their strange pull and power; in the ways they hold on to us and we to them.' After her father dies of cancer, Gemma Nisbet is inundated with keepsakes connected to his life by family and friends. As she becomes attuned to the ways certain items can evoke specific memories or moments, she begins to ask questions about the relationships between objects and people. Why is it so difficult to discard some artefacts and not others? Does the power exerted by precious things influence the ways we remember the past and perceive the future? As Nisbet considers her father's life and begins to connect his experiences of mental illness with her own, she wonders whether hanging on to 'stuff' is ultimately a source of comfort or concern. Intimate and wide-ranging, The Things We Live With is a collection of essays about how we learn to live with the 'things' handed down in families which we carry throughout our lives: not only material objects, but also grief, memory, anxiety and depression. It's about notions of home and restlessness, inheritance and belonging -- and, above all, the ways we tell our stories to ourselves and other people. 'The Things We Live With is a tender cartography of grief and familial legacy, in which Gemma Nisbet elegantly explores how the maps we make--whether by story, memory, art, or artefact--inevitably fall shy of the territory.' -Josephine Rowe 'What are we to make of all these things around us? And what are they to make of us? Delicately, as if unpacking a box of fragile treasures, Nisbet cups in her hands and presents us with a series of relationships: with old, loved things, with her family, and her own crushable centre. They are all, it turns out, well kept in the same box. Nisbet wraps her meditations in soft words and firm intelligence, and in this wonderful, digressive and intently considered work she uncovers the tender meaning of possessions, and what it is to be possessed by them too. As a devoted keeper of objects, I read this book with recognition and envy, and anyone who inherits, hoards, abhors or adores the relics of their lives will appreciate Nisbet's candour and contemplations.' --Kate Holden 'Wise, profound and with tender humour The Things We Live With expands our thinking about the power of objects to shape our sense of self, anchor our memories, and reflect our place in the world. In these superb, engrossing essays Gemma Nisbet draws us in close as she examines what we hold onto, what we let go, and the complex relationships between the tangible and intangible. A moving portrayal of grief, love, and legacy, this is a collection to treasure.' --Vanessa Berry
