ABR Patrons' Programme

 

Australian Book Review is Australia’s oldest literary review and publishes reviews, essays, letters and new creative writing. It is a fully independent and not-for-profit organisation. ABR’s primary aims are to foster high critical standards, to publish outstanding new writing, and to contribute to the preservation of literary values and a full appreciation of Australia’s literary heritage. ABR also encourages writers by initiating poetry, essay and reviewing competitions, with generous prizes, and presents public conversations about literature and ideas throughout Australia.

Cultural philanthropy has always been a feature of the visual and performing arts in this country – but not of literature. We believe that good writing and cogent critique are every bit as deserving as opera companies and art galleries. ABR seeks your financial support to help us improve and diversify the magazine. Patrons will have the distinction of making a tangible and pioneering contribution to this small but vibrant agent of literary ideals!
