2008 Australian Literature Society Awards

A couple of weeks back I noted that the 2008 Australian Literature Society Gold Medal had been presented to The Lost Dog by Michelle de Kretser (who I'm sure I saw driving through Richmond last Friday night).

Now comes the news that, as well as the Gold Medal, the ALS also presents a biennial Magarey Medal for Biography. And this year that award was won by Ida Leeson: A Life by Dr Sylvia Martin.

[I probably got confused with this medal.]
