If Brisbane is a state of mind... what is it? Love it or loathe it, leave it or breathe it: Brisbane has come a long way in the last 25 years, let alone the last 150. But at what cost? Can a city that doesn’t hold onto its past carry a strong identity? This book is a false-colour rendering of Brisbane’s mental environment, told by a former public servant sacked by the Newman regime. His mission: to nail the reality of Brisbane from the streets up. A book for people who feel ambivalent about Brisbane. Beautiful or ugly; daggy or sunny? Big country town or new world city?
