Energy and life and the body. Disappointment and passion and pride. The inexorable labour of working toward the just. The work of desire, the work of identity, the work of standing still. The work of giving life, the work of telling truth, the work of making a home.

This season, Meanjin’s writers are calling us to account.

What are we gambling with when we settle for what’s merely adequate? What have we already sacrificed the moment we come to realise what’s at stake? What is the price of the just?

Embrace Australia’s finest writers. Meanjin 84.1 Autumn 2025 out 19 March.
