Description:
'I was born in the year J.M. Coetzee published his third novel, Waiting for the Barbarians. My mother read this dark, disturbing book with its multiple scenes of torture as she breastfed me at night, while my older sister slept and the house was quiet. It was 1980. The apartheid government had declared a state of emergency in the face of growing internal revolt, and my parents were thinking of leaving South Africa again.'
For Ceridwen Dovey, J.M. Coetzee 'has always been there, an unseen but strongly felt presence in our small family drama'. As a child, she observed with fascination her mother's immersion in Coetzee's writing as she worked on what would become the first critical study of his early novels. Even now, as a writer herself, Ceridwen's relationship with Coetzee's books is still mediated by her mother's readings of them- to get to him, she must first step through her mother's formidable mind. With tenderness and insight, Dovey draws on this personal history to explore the Nobel Prize-winner's work - how his books 'do theory' on themselves - while also tracing the intellectual heritage that has been passed from mother to daughter.
In the Writers on Writers series, leading writers reflect on another Australian writer who has inspired and fascinated them. Provocative, crisp and written from a practitioner's perspective, the series starts a fresh conversation between past and present, writer and reader. It sheds light on the craft of writing, and introduces some intriguing and talented authors and their work.

Great Pull-ups that Don't Leak!
Size: 3T-4T, Unit Count: 20
I was on the hunt for the perfect potty training pants for my little guy, and Pull-Ups Boys' Potty Training Pants in size 3T-4T turned out to be a great find. We’ve tried a few different brands, but these have been the most reliable. The design is fun and colorful, which my son loves, and it makes him excited to wear them. The fit is spot on for his size (32-40 lbs), and he moves around comfortably without any leaks. The absorbency is impressive – it gives me peace of mind knowing accidents won’t mean a complete outfit change. Overall, these Pull-Ups have made the potty training process a lot smoother for both of us.
There are a few things to note, though. The price is a bit higher compared to some other brands, but I believe the quality justifies it. Also, while they are great during the day, we still need a bit more protection at night. I find myself using an extra layer for nighttime just to be safe. The packaging could also be improved – a resealable option would be nice to keep the remaining training pants fresh and organized. Despite these minor issues, I’m really happy with the product, and my son is well on his way to being fully potty trained.
Pros:
- Fun and colorful design that my son loves
- Perfect fit for 32-40 lbs, allowing comfortable movement
- Excellent absorbency, minimizing leaks
- Helps make the potty training process smoother
Cons:
- Slightly higher price compared to other brands
- Not as effective for overnight use, requiring additional protection
- Packaging lacks a resealable option for convenience

Leak proof training pants
Size: 3T-4T, Unit Count: 112
These training pants are amazing. My son uses them whenever he’s taking a nap or sleeping throughout the night. I’ve ordered these multiple times and we’ve never had an issue with leaking.

Great for potty training
Size: 3T-4T, Unit Count: 20
We really like these pull ups and they have worked well for us during potty training. They are easy to pull on and off, which is great for toddlers who are learning to be more independent.
They fit well and do a good job containing messes without leaking. I also like that they feel comfortable and not too bulky, so my child can move around easily.
Overall, these have been a reliable option for us and something we continue to use during this stage.

Preferred by daycares because they open and close on the sides and kids can learn to pull on and take on on their own

Nice
Size: 3T-4T, Unit Count: 112
Good pull ups, it could get a little linty but it fits perfectly on my toddler. It stretches which I love. I do love how I could strap and unstrap the sides of the pull up. The designs on the pull up are cute. It holds a lot of pee and soaks it up very well. It’s comfortable on my toddler and the pee and poop doesn’t leak out of it. It is worth the money.
