Collected Stories

Acknowledgements

Four of these stories have not been previously collected: ‘Joe’ (first printed in Australian New Writing), ‘Concerning the Greek Tyrant’ (The Tabloid Story Pocket Book, Wild & Woolley), ‘A Million Dollars’ Worth of Amphetamines’ (Nation Review) and ‘A Letter to Our Son’ (Granta). The remaining stories were first published in The Fat Man in History (University of Queensland Press, Australia, 1974) and War Crimes (University of Queensland Press, Australia, 1979). A number of stories from both these collections were included in the British edition of The Fat Man in History (Faber and Faber, 1980).
