No one would argue that Amanda Lohrey doesn’t deserve her Miles Franklin win for
The Labyrinth. She’s at the peak of her game after decades of impressive work dissecting the hearts and minds of Australians. But should there be a Miles Franklin award at all? Some don’t think so.
Critic David Free thinks that literary prizes are such a terrible idea that he turned down the chance to be a judge himself. Apart from the time and effort involved, “the prospect of sitting down with a couple of strangers to haggle about our respective tastes in literature struck me as radically unappealing”, he wrote in this newspaper. “With me on it, the panel would probably end up picking a book that was nobody’s favourite.”

A proposal by some Scottsdale City Council members to temporarily shut down some downtown streets to make way for street fairs and other pedestrian-friendly activities has drawn a mixed response from their colleagues as well as downtown business owners.
The cityâs strategic plan initially included a goal to âconsider pilot to temporarily turn some Old Town streets into walk-only zones for one weekend per month.â
Council later removed the âwalk-onlyâ stipulation after some pushback from local business owners, instead opting to âconsider pilot to temporarily turn some Old Town streets into more walkable areas to encourage more foot traffic and business activities including focused activities and events.â
