Books and Writing - 29/05/2005: Carmel Bird + Marion Halligan Carmel Bird: I’m absolutely obsessed with the fact that I was born in 1940, truly obsessed, and Marion is pretty fascinated too by the fact that she was born in 1940. Carmel Bird: I search for that date everywhere, and I’m very exercised by the fact that Oh my God, Scott Fitzgerald died in 1940 Ah, but then I was born and it goes like that. Carmel Bird: Well, I have an interesting spin on that again, in that sometimes my friends and family look for themselves in my fiction and cannot find themselves and are quite miffed by the absence. www.abc.net.au /rn/arts/bwriting/stories/s1378570.htm   (2701 words)

OzLit@Vicnet Review: The White Garden:- Carmel Bird Bird's position is precisely the opposite; Goddard is an advocate of anti-psychiatry, a disciple of R.D. Laing, but his opposition to the psychoanalytic establishment makes him more, not less, menacing. She epitomizes a conscientiousness, or, it might be said, a sense of conscience, that means the retort to Goddard's mad visions will not just be mere randomness and defeat, that there will be someone with a sense of mission, duty, and compassion to tell the tale the victims could not themselves relate. Bird's book is a splendid, plangent, and memorable achievement, and a permanent contribution to Australian literature. home.vicnet.net.au /~ozlit/rev-9605.html   (1280 words)
