The dressmaker by rosalie ham5/30/2023 ![]() ![]() "Ham's eye for the absurd, the comical, and the poignant are highly tuned. Ham has real gifts as a writer of surfaces and pictures, bringing Tilly's frocks to surprising, animated life." The New York Times Book Review "It's clear we're visiting a small 1950s town not of history but as imagined by Tim Burton: the gothic, polarized world of Edward Scissorhands. It's no wonder The Dressmaker, a tale of small-town couture and revenge, is being adapted for film." The Sydney Morning Herald Blessed with an astringently unsentimental tone and a talent for creating memorably eccentric characters, Ham also possesses a confidently brisk and mischievous sense of plot. The major motion picture also stars Judy Davis, Hugo Weaving, and extras from the author's hometown of Jerilderie. ![]() Set in the 1950s, its subjects include haute couture, love and hate, and a cast of engagingly eccentric characters. The Dressmaker is a modern Australian classic, much loved for its bittersweet humour. Through the long Dungatar nights, she sits at her sewing machine, planning revenge. Now she earns her living making exquisite frocks for the people who drove her away when she was ten. She left the small Victorian town of Dungatar years before, and became an accomplished couturier in Paris. Tilly Dunnage has come home to care for her mad old mother. ![]() NOW A MAJOR MOTION PICTURE STARRING KATE WINSLET AND LIAM HEMSWORTH The bestseller from the author of the upcoming new novel The Year of the Farmer. ![]()

Tarnsman5/30/2023 ![]() ![]() So why do sci-fi/fantasy fans turn their anger more on Gor and not those? I’d argue that it’s because it makes the fig leaf of “sword and planet adventure” too blatant, putting it in a different standard. More interesting than the blocky prose is how the series got its reputation: I mean, there’s certainly no shortage of outright and far more explicit sleaze fiction, whether in the 1960s-70s or today. ![]() This isn’t as present in the first installment, but Cabot is still not exactly the most ideal protagonist. The series devolved fairly quickly into what is best known as slave sleaze, where it becomes filled with blocky rants about how men holding women as slaves is the best, most natural form of society, and how many Earthwomen suddenly find themselves loving being slaves. As transported Earthman Tarl Cabot goes to a world of barbarians, slavery, and giant birds (the titular “tarns”), a clunky narrative ensues. ![]() What that is is a somewhat sleazier and really, really blatant John Carter of Mars knockoff. Yet you’d never know it from the beginning entry, Tarnsman of Gor. The Gor series is perhaps the most infamous science fiction one ever. ![]()
