PEOPLE WHO LUNCH
Essays on Work, Leisure & Loose Living
This book is about working and not working, hating work and needing to work, intimacy and technology, money and love, labour and pleasure. Across a series of essays, Sally Olds probes the ambivalent utopias of polyamory, cryptocurrency, clubbing, communes, a secret fraternity, and the essay form itself.
Curiosity drives each of these adventures into projected worlds, where Olds explores how living with precariousness changes expectations of how a life can be lived in this thrilling appraisal of the state of things.
Sally Olds is a writer from Queensland living in Narrm/Melbourne. Her work has been published by Sydney Review of Books, un Magazine, AQNB, the Institute of Modern Art, collected in anthologies, and shortlisted for the Griffith Review's Emerging Voices Competition and the Sydney Review of Books/Copyright Agency's Emerging Critics Fellowship. She has collaborated extensively with Precog, a club night held in Narrm, and taught writing workshops in and outside of university. This is her first book.
