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

Literary critics this week reviewed 10 new fiction and non-fiction releases spanning love affairs, disability, and Australian mythology. Mary Costello's "A Beautiful Loan" follows a woman through two relationships over 25 years, while Geraldine Mellet's "Things I Cannot Say" tackles institutional abuse through a quadriplegic protagonist. Wayne Marshall's "Henry Goes Bush" reimagines writer Henry Lawson's 1892 exile as postmodern myth-making.
