Description: When conventional approaches to writing about real people, real events and real experiences fall short of capturing the truth, it's time to get experimental. Using unorthodox style, voice, point-of-view and form, experimental nonfiction upends the rote to find new ways of conveying meaning. It defamiliarises the familiar and exposes the pulsating, dizzying limits of writing. Feature pieces that explore: the body and its relationship to the world, clime change, the connection of First Nations people to land, trans motherhood, leeches, computers pretending to be humans, and so much more, Dizzy Limits collects they very best examples of experimental nonfiction from Australia's most intellectually ambitious and creatively curious writers.
