Most Unwinning Books
Sometimes in a bookshop you will pick up a book and shake your head, asking, What are the publishers like Allen & Unwin thinking? John Ironmonger must be turning in his grave....However, there are some exceptions as David Marr and Marian Wilkinson's Dark Victory is an excellent day-by-day account of the MV Tampa and SIEV-X affairs and their effects on the December 2001 Federal election.
Dark Victory shines a spotlight on politicians such as Alexander Downer who: is not a man endowed by nature to perform diplomatic miracles ... . The latest product of a political dynasty and one of the last Anglo-Australians left in politics, he has a taste for pin stripes and an edge to his voice that does not sit easily with ... brutal diplomatic objectives ... . Downer is one of those fussy men who insist on their dignity; someone who gives the disturbing impression of having learnt the hard way how to bully. Not a rogue, but weak. In tight corners he grows shrill.
