A rich literary anthology, Latitudes: New Writing From The North gathers a diverse collection of voices from northern Australia, presenting poetry, fiction, and creative nonfiction that maps the cultural, geographical, and emotional landscapes of the region. Edited by Susan Johnson and Mary Roberts, the collection champions writers whose work is shaped by the distinct rhythms, heat, and isolation of life above the Tropic of Capricorn, illustrating how place profoundly influences creative expression. The anthology argues that northern Australian writing constitutes its own vital literary tradition — one too often overlooked by the country's southern-centric publishing world. With a tone that is both celebratory and urgent, it introduces readers to established and emerging voices alike, chronicling the stories, histories, and imaginative lives of communities that occupy one of the world's most dramatic and unforgiving environments.
