“TASMANIAN author Geoffrey Dean has been writing short stories for almost 50 years and has pretty much perfected the craft. The Literary Lunch is an impressive collection of his work. Dean writes with a controlled lyricism — his prose is welded to an unpretentiousness that both counterpoises and intensifies its musicality… Dean has won many awards and plaudits from nearly every quarter. He deserves the praise; his short fiction is among the best in the country.” The Age, Review section: Books Saturday, January 8, 2005.
