Remembering John McGahern (12 November 1934 – 30 March 2006)

"The best of life is lived quietly, where nothing happens but our calm journey through the day, where change is imperceptible and the precious life is everything..."

Read Kim Forrester's wonderful piece on my favourite author (and my own reflections can be found here, and if you want to read more about McGahern and his work, here's a bibliography).

About

  • Trevorcook
  • I have worked in politics, public policy and strategic communications for over 30 years. I was recently awarded a doctorate in Australian politics at the University of Sydney. My thesis was on the (changing) relationship between the ALP and unions. I have been blogging since November 2003 and over the past decade I have written many articles on politics, public relations and social media for newspapers, magazines and websites. I love literature particularly John McGahern and James Joyce. The header photo is of the Clarence River taken before dawn at Ulmarra in 2012.
