Works about this Work

Dairy Farm Philosopher: J.P. McKinney's ‘According to Noonan’ Stories and Ron Campbell's Australian Journal Roger Osborne , 2017 single work criticism
— Appears in: Queensland Review , December vol. 24 no. 2 2017; (p. 293-304)

While working as a dairy farmer in the Sunshine Coast hinterland during the 1920s, Jack McKinney began contributing short stories to the popular weekly, the Australian Journal. Drawing on his own experience and sense of humour, he developed these stories into a series, ‘According to Noonan’, which the Australian Journal published until 1939 and reprised in the 1950s. This article will examine these stories and consider them in relation to McKinney's later life and writing.
