What exactly makes Melbourne unique? And why do we always struggle to describe the city's differences? Journalist Jenny Sinclair went in search of the answers and discovered that it'sactually all in our head - or, more prosaically, our collective imagination. When We Think About Melbourne is a wry and whimsical survey of the city's x-factor. It observes with a keenand appreciative eye the changing physical, social and cultural landscape of Melbourne through its literature, music, art, maps, travel and transport. Will appeal to the same people who boughtThe Melbourne Book, Melbourne: The Making of an Eating & Drinking Capital and The Slow Guide to Melbourne. This title will receive widespread coverage, and the indefatigable Jenny Sinclair willpublicise the book extensively across print media and radio. Serialised in The Age's A2 supplement. The title is supported by the City of Melbourne, which will assist with additional publicity andpromotion. Co-published with the State Library of Victoria, this book will feature a wealth of visual material, including original photography and many defining images that have shapedMelbourne's opinion of itself.
