— Appears in: Meanjin Online 2023;

— Review of The Modern Anna Kate Blair , 2023 single work novel

'The Museum of Modern Art is the glassy heart of The Modern, Anna Kate Blair’s debut novel, where Australian transplant Sophia spends the last days of her two-year fellowship checking artworks for dust and taking Instagram pictures of different gradations of white. Here, the monastic halls of MoMA are a transitory space, where even senior curators are on fixed-term contracts, and promotion is a far-flung fancy.' (Introduction)

''In our old suburb, which' existed at the dawn of dial-up, time was a small thing. Most of the local kids spent long afternoons pinballing from door to door, down avenues dotted with one-storey shacks, hollering for fellow yobbos to come out and bike, wrestle and spit. Alyssa and I, along with Jamie K from number nine, didn't run with the mainstream crew. Firstly, because we're Cantonese, and the Shanghainese kids thought we stank of century egg and ate dog for dinner.'
