Love, burnout and literary scandal: This week’s best new books

Literary critics this week reviewed ten new fiction and non-fiction releases spanning love affairs, disability, and Australian mythology. Mary Costello's "A Beautiful Loan" traces a woman's doomed relationships over 25 years, while Geraldine Mellet's "Things I Cannot Say" explores institutional abuse through a quadriplegic engineer's perspective. Wayne Marshall's "Henry Goes Bush" reimagines writer Henry Lawson's 1892 journey as postmodern myth-making.
