We all love being read to—and the first of our MEANJIN MONDAYS didn’t disappoint! On Monday evening 10 July, we listened to three writers with new work in Meanjin 82.2 Winter 2023:

• Mohammed Massoud Morsi read his story ‘Picture of a Peanut Gallery’
• Cynthia Troup read her experimental piece ‘OUTtakes nine to thirty-eight’
• Patrick Lenton read his rather timely essay ‘Why does Elon Musk, the largest clown in the clown car, simply not eat the other clowns?’

Recorded straight from Zoom into the cloud, complete with not-quite-accurate live captioning, here is the recording (passcode: =U7aSCMd).
