Description:
'I was born in the year J.M. Coetzee published his third novel, Waiting for the Barbarians. My mother read this dark, disturbing book with its multiple scenes of torture as she breastfed me at night, while my older sister slept and the house was quiet. It was 1980. The apartheid government had declared a state of emergency in the face of growing internal revolt, and my parents were thinking of leaving South Africa again.'
For Ceridwen Dovey, J.M. Coetzee 'has always been there, an unseen but strongly felt presence in our small family drama'. As a child, she observed with fascination her mother's immersion in Coetzee's writing as she worked on what would become the first critical study of his early novels. Even now, as a writer herself, Ceridwen's relationship with Coetzee's books is still mediated by her mother's readings of them- to get to him, she must first step through her mother's formidable mind. With tenderness and insight, Dovey draws on this personal history to explore the Nobel Prize-winner's work - how his books 'do theory' on themselves - while also tracing the intellectual heritage that has been passed from mother to daughter.
In the Writers on Writers series, leading writers reflect on another Australian writer who has inspired and fascinated them. Provocative, crisp and written from a practitioner's perspective, the series starts a fresh conversation between past and present, writer and reader. It sheds light on the craft of writing, and introduces some intriguing and talented authors and their work.

Works for me!
Size: 15"-15.5" Neck 34"-35" Sleeve, Color: Hazy Blue
I needed a couple shirts for wearing under a sport coat, these will do nicely. I got them in Blue and Grey. As with all dress shirts, I’ll have to wash them to get the wrinkles out, I hit them with my portable steamer as well. They aren’t think enough to hold a good ironing unless you use spray starch, but for $20 I’m fine with that. The tag on the shirts said $60, I would be pretty disappointed if I actually paid $60 for them; but for $20 the value is good.
I’m 5’8” and 180, so got the Medium 15/15 1/2 Regular fit, it’s a great fit for me. They came out of the wash fine, and are soft to the touch. I would expect them to wear as expected for a $20 shirt, and think the durability will be fine.

Very Nice Dress Shirt for business Plus!
Size: 15"-15.5" Neck 32"-33" Sleeve, Color: White
My husband was pleasantly surprised as we never would have purchased a dress shirt on Amazon as never considered clothing as something marketed on Amazon. Gave it a try and everything was good.....fit, length, and fabric.

Okay overall.
Size: 15"-15.5" Neck 32"-33" Sleeve, Color: Pink, Size: 15"-15.5" Neck 32"-33" Sleeve, Color: Pink
It's an okay shirt with some issues. For one, it runs pretty big. Glad I got a medium as it fits me like a large which is my usual size. As for the sleeves, I have pretty average length arms so the 32-33" fits me perfectly just like on the model in the images.
Second issue is the shirt came packaged with a bunch of needle pins that left some small holes/marks in the front and back bottom of the shirt. They're not super noticeable unless you know they are there.
Lastly, the color in the image is duller than in person. In natural lighting it's a more vibrant pink. Comes pretty wrinkly out of the package. Needs ironing or wrinkle releaser.
One thing that would make it better is if it had a pocket, but I only really intend to layer it under a jacket so I'm not worried about it.
