Spinifex Press Anthologies
With the recent publication of Not Dead Yet: Feminism, Passion and Women’s Liberation Susan Hawthorne delved through the Spinifex Press catalogue to re-discover all our anthologies. In the process she discovered we’ve published 37 anthologies in 30 years! (Update 2023: and two more since this original blog post)
Quite a feat, wouldn’t you say. They are all listed here for readers and librarians interested in cataloguing our publications.
