From the editor: 

When Don Defenderfer heads into the Tasmanian bush, he finds calmness and connection. When he writes about it for Forty South, I find calmness and connection. His piece in this issue, entitled simply wukalina, is as beautiful as anything I have ever read about this land.

Back in less-calming urban areas, life in Tasmania was very different just 30 years ago, and especially for school-leavers. Life in Tasmania in the early 1990s was about “fierce working class pride, kids leaving school after Grade 10 without anybody batting an eyelid, wealth and poverty rubbing shoulders, and people dying early after living tough lives”. They are the words of one of those school-leavers, one who “like many of my generation … left Tasmania for the fabled mainland”. Dr Samara McPhedran has achieved much since joining that exodus, but as she explains in this absorbing piece, something of the essence of Tasmania has travelled with her.

It seems that wherever I have been in my love of old bookshops, disturbing dust to discover wondrous rooms, passages and corners that to me are the truly magical spaces of the world, Rayne Allinson has been there before me. Especially in Tasmania, which can lend dark and Gothic narratives to the places where books have historically been kept. She speaks so ardently about this that it was clear what I had to do: I asked her to write about it. This

column is for book lovers, but it is at heart about the places where books are gathered. There is a difference. The distinction is as small as a subtle point of definition, and as large as the universe to which, for human beings, books are the only mode of travel, and bookshops the portal.

Local government is often in the news in Tasmania, and rarely for positive reasons. Both the national and state governments have over the years conducted or commissioned studies on how to improve efficiencies, with the one major constant recommendation being a reduction in the number of councils. The number has been reduced – from 49 to 29 – but evidence that we would be better off with as few as eight super councils has failed to win support from a majority of either councillors or ratepayers. The issues can be complicated, but Saul Eslake cuts through the politics and rhetoric and looks at the past, present and potential future from the clearest perspective – the community level.

 The plan to move the Hobart campus of the University of Tasmania from Sandy Bay to the city has created a lot of debate, much of it heated. But it isn’t the first time the Hobart campus has been moved, and it isn’t the first time heated words have been exchanged, as Nick Brodie reports.

Good value
Color: Black
It is a nice case a little stiff. Fits well and easy of use is good. Only thing is I wish it had a tab when you fold the top back to lock it in place.

Good case

Not bulky at all, slim but still protects my iPad, keeps my screen safe from scratches and it’s easy to charge with the case on. I love the color, purple is my favorite. Very compatible and it closes nicely

Just get it.
Color: Black
Fits like a glove. I love the feel and quality of the case. It doesn’t press down on the buttons. And it has a nice little nifty area for the pen. I’ve had a lot more cases that cost way more than this, and not even half the quality this one rocks by far the best on the market.

Perfect Case – Stylish, Functional, and Protective
Color: A-Pink
This iPad case is everything I was looking for! The clear backing is a great touch—it lets the color of my iPad show through, which I love. It feels sturdy without being bulky, and the fit is perfect. The front cover is magnetic and automatically turns off the screen when closed, which helps save battery and just makes things more convenient overall. I also really appreciate the built-in Apple Pencil holder—it keeps the pencil secure and prevents it from getting lost or falling off when I’m on the go. Great design, solid protection, and smart features. Highly recommend!
