26Shorts2026: prompt --- set in Oceania & Polynesia in 26 Short Stories for 2026 (April 28)
Reviews
A fairly enjoyable anthology of short stories. Of particular note were "Send Round the Hat" by Henry Lawson and "Fiend and Friend" by Hal Porter.
Overall a decent collection--The Rainbow Bird and Talking Ground were my favourites.
Very few of the poems appealed to me, but I guess I didn't expect much more.
