The Family Law Courts in Australia are robustly monolithic and often draconian in nature – a formidably behemoth institution overseen by powerful and sometimes far-reachingly domineering judges. Treacherous to navigate at the best of times, the Family Law Courts are a place […]
Can women ever truly know their female friends, particularly a work friend, thoroughly and intricately? Can secrets between those friends surreptitiously co-exist within the framework of a solid and well-chiseled kinship? These questions are ennobly and forthrightly examined in phenomenally talented and […]
Human rights violations are often thought, by we living in Western society, to have occurred and currently taking place in countries and societies that are diametrically opposite to our own. For instance, developing countries. Those in the West are frequently smug on […]
The well-worn and well-tested saying of “It’s an ill wind that blows no good” echoes resolutely and profoundly in stellar Australian author and psychologist, Kylie Ladd’s, character-driven and salubrious novel, I’ll Leave You With This. Taking place predominantly in the frenzied yet […]
Prince Harry – Often Misunderstood and Misrepresented in Life Hazily observing the much-feted British royal family from these intrinsically laid-back Antipodean shores in the 1970s (my childhood years), I viewed Queen Elizabeth II and her family as being ethereally beautiful, almost perfect, […]
The often complex web of family relationships can headily encompass an unforeseen and nuanced detour. Such truths are readily spelt out in phenomenally talented English Australian (she was born in England and migrated to Australia in 2006) author, Michelle Upton’s, soaring debut […]
The well-trodden road of marriage in contemporary Australian society (and throughout the modern world at large) is invariably intricately nuanced and defiantly complex in nature. Additionally, this time honoured institution is frequently tenuous and fraught. In short, the outer glow that many […]
As the cascading waves of 2023 begin to ebb and flow gently (and at times rapidly and thunderously) throughout the world, to different degrees in all our lives, now is a fortuitous time to accurately appraise our lives, and assess the varying […]
American university fraternities and sororities for male and female students respectively (and some graduates) are from the outside shiny, vibrant and welcoming organisations, where a strong sense of community is developed among members and lifelong friendships are forged. The brotherhood and sisterhood […]
From our very earliest years of childhood onwards, we, in Western society, are continually told that Christmas is “the happiest time of the year”. Undoubtedly for many it is a time of joy, hope and love. Also true is the heartbreakingly obsequious […]
The reverberating immoral timbre of the human race can be cloudy, murky and depraved. Paradoxically, the moral fortitude of the same species is capable of soaring good-will and redemption. Humans are undoubtedly able to do great good in this world, as well […]
There may be some of life’s troubles and forms of malaise that aren’t able to be remedied, or at the very least eased, by an Australian beach holiday, but I can’t think of many. When my consistently kind and thoughtful sisters let […]
The existential bonds that transpire between a mother and child are indisputably, in the vast majority of cases, deeply embedded in the mother’s and child’s psyche forever. Veritably unbreakable (Or are they?) Such beautiful and poignant considerations are definingly, heartbreakingly and at-times […]
Kinton Bay, a (fictional) town on the idyllic New South Wales coastline, like many towns in Australia and across the world, harbours a plethora of sordid and seemingly elusive secrets. These potent secrets, in addition to toxic mindsets and attitudes of folk […]
Travel to a foreign locale (specifically in this instance Rome) can lead to imagining and then portraying oneself as a new person, even a better person. Further, romantic entanglements forged in foreign environs are not always as they first seem. That is, […]
When Romanian American Holocaust survivor, the eternally brave and defiant Elie Wiesel, spoke of the Holocaust, he reminded the world that “For the dead and the living we must bear witness”. Elie additionally stated, of all injustices throughout the world, that “We […]
The heady, exuberant, and even poignant days of being a teenager, are undeniably a vehement springboard to life as an adult. The teenage years are, further, a testament to the fact that youthful idealism and thought are forever bound up in one’s […]
At first glance, the buzzingly modern and indulgent Gold Coast, Queensland, encompassing sublime and eternally summery vistas, is a universe away from a sleepy, yet visually radiantly dream-like and ethereal, English village. Further, a village established in fraught medieval times, and presided […]
Thankfully for readers the world over, Mexican-Canadian (she was born and raised in Mexico and migrated to Canada when she was twenty-three) author, Silvia Moreno-Garcia, didn’t listen to those in the publishing industry who told Silvia patronisingly and somewhat harshly that books […]
