AWW23: Creme de la Phlegm - Melinda Harvey, Jeanine Leane, Caroline Overington & Beejay Silcox
Chair: Catriona Menzies-Pike
\nIt was Goethe who declared "call the dog, he is a reviewer". Reviewers are almost universally pilloried as partisan, ill-informed mediocrities fuelled by malice. What leads to this perception and why are they so reviled? We consider the state of Australia\u2019s reviewing culture and the impact of backscratching and sycophancy on its present condition. The editor of the\xa0Sydney Review of Books, Catriona Menzies-Pike, is joined by Melinda Harvey, Jeanine Leane, Caroline Overington and Beejay Silcox.
