Description:
A Novel Ideais a memoir in photoessay form that follows Fiona McGregor's life as she
writes her award-winning novelIndelible Ink. It is a tongue-in-cheek
rumination on the monotony and loneliness of the novelist's daily life, and the
act of endurance the writer must perform.
Through an extended
sequence of photographs taken on a hand-me-down camera, accompanied by terse,
evocative captions, the book spans several yearsof labour and
procrastination, elation and despair.The details of the outside world
intrude as McGregor works on the novel alone in her Bondi flat, with nothing
but a desk, a pin-board, a laptop and a cat, and in studio spaces in Berlin and Estonia.
McGregor's voice is
wry, vulnerable, at times caustic, capturing the colloquial qualities of her
fiction and the durational nature of her performance art via the ephemeral and
essential thoughts that take up an author's days, weeks, and years.
'A Novel Ideais a curiosity and a delight. Composed over years, Fiona McGregor's intimate photo-essay charts writing a novel: that collision of exhilaration, tedium, despair and sheer slog. It will captivate writers and readers alike.' — Michelle de Kretser
'Fiona McGregor casts out any pretence to literary mystique in a deadpan, ruthlessly honest, witty and at times surprisingly moving first person photographic narrative that draws us in, disarms us, leaves us vulnerable to the sudden poignancy of certain observations and revelations.' — Blair French

For soft, sensually awesome sheets- LOOK no more!
Color: 15 - Sage Green, Size: Full
Would give 10 stars if possible! (And this is a nonpaid for review!) When I received the sheets, instantly I knew that I had the right ones, had bought a down comforter close in color as well.. these sheets? The material is strong yet, soft and warm. So so especially soft, and when I make up the bed, ahhh! plus the corners on the fitted, such a cinch to pull over the mattress, even with a topper on the bed! Feels almost spa-like <3 Very comfy, so far in the winter and in 85 degree heat! Soft and easy peasy to care for, too. Washing is a breeze, dry and fold. So far the only thing I can smell on these sheets is my wonderful detergent! Will purchase again. And possibly, again! Thank you!!

Soft luxury on a modest price
Color: 01 - White, Size: King
These sheets are truly luxurious. They are thin, but feel wonderful against your skin. The sheets are roomy enough to latch onto the corners without having to lift the mattress and stretch. The thread count provides incredible softness against your skin.
The pillowcases are roomy enough for your pillow so that you do not have to feel like you’re stuffing sausages.

Very thin. You get what you pay for.
Color: 01 - White, Size: Queen
You get what you pay for. I first noticed the softness which was great. The quality is very thin. They are cool which is great. I have not washed them yet. I would suggest washing them on cool and gentle by themselves. And because they are so thin I would fluff dry for an hour if you have that setting. The two things that damages clothes and sheets, etc. are if you have an agitator in your washer, those ruin clothes and the heat you choose for the fabric you’re drying I always wash my clothes on cold. I do not have an agitator anymore and on delicate and thin fabrics, I use fluff dry. It is cool, but it will dry, especially if it is thin and I’ve had to dry my fine delicates a little bit longer on fluff that way they don’t shrink because the shrinking comes in from the heat from the dryer so keep that in mind another good thing to remember if you got white sheets like I did is that when you use your detergent add a little bit of borax or laundry booster and they will help get them clean and sparkly white. I am on the fence about whether I would recommend this or not if you’re tight on money and you take good care of them I would recommend that you get them. I’m a linen freak and I buy mostly expensive sheets and I thought I would try this out so that’s where I’m at.
