Description

Poet and co-editor of Overland Evelyn Araluen joins Jess, Charlie and Rachel to discuss the sudden closure of Meanjin, after Melbourne University Publishing decided that the 85 year old literary journal was no longer financially viable. They discuss the lack of communication over the closure, whether removing the archives paywall will lead to AI scraping of decades of Australian literary culture, and whether literary work should be expected to produce profit in the first place.
