'Pigeonholed is as much a tribute to genre writing as it is a hook of defiance. Because everyone knows what it means to be pigeonholed. As members of society, we're intimately familiar with the feeling of being boxed in. Right now I'm squeezed in the 'gestating woman' category. It fits me uncomfortably, though my body takes to it keenly enough.' (Editorial introduction)

short story
'A lonely yowie emerges from the bush to attend the Desperate and Dateless Ball. Mysterious creatures descend from the sky to place a ban on footy. A shark named Bruce turns up in the local swimming pool. A fisherman enjoying a boys’ weekend on the Murray River finds perspective where he least expects it.
'In Shirl, Wayne Marshall takes a range of what-if scenarios to their fabulist and comedic extremes. Superbly inventive and powerful, these fourteen stories skewer contemporary Australian society – particularly the crises of masculinity and national identity – in insightful and yet hilarious ways, blurring the line between fantasy and reality. This astounding collection will make you rethink what it means to be Australian.' (Publication summary)
