Description:
Tom Lee is one of Sydney Morning Herald's Best Young Australian Novelists 2019
One of the strangest
and most appealing novels you will read this year!
Tom Lee's first novel is about a young jogger who is in a relationship
with an older woman. She is both his coach and his mentor. Coach Fitz, as he
calls her, seeks to instil a philosophy of running which combines 'controlled
intensity' with a curiosity about places and their histories. A country boy, he
is fascinated by the landscapes of the city beaches and parks through which they
travel. And he has his own obsessions – with exercise routines, ancestral
legacies, outdoor gyms, horse-racing, weather conditions and inner-city eating
habits. Then, suddenly, their relationship falls apart, over the issue of sex –
and he becomes a coach and mentor in turn, to a young man this time, as he attempts
to orchestrate an ideal expression of his emotional, athletic and intellectual
urges.
Coach Fitz is an exploration of the outdoor mentality that plays
such a dominant role in the Australian psyche. It is remarkable for its
observations about landscape and physical exercise, embedded in the training
routines and dialogues of the runners. But most of all it is about the emotions
and aspirations of youth, and the complications these engender.
'This quirky debut novel by Tom Lee is a wonderfully strange patchwork of psychobabble, self-help buzzwords and technocratic jargon...There's an easy matter-of-factness here, a flatness of affect reminiscent of the work of Gerald Murnane.' — The Saturday Paper

Baki in English!
Format: Paperback
Long awaited! I started getting into Baki about five years ago and since then I've been fully caught up in the series, but I've always wished for volumes to be printed in English so I could have something official and to put on my shelf.
As for the actual product, they did an amazing job putting together an amazing volume! High quality, easy to read, paper itself feels really nice, saw in the details it's actually printed in Japan, so that's cool. Cover is very striking, same for the spine, it'll stand out in your shelf.
That being said, I'm so happy we finally got official Baki volumes in English, it's a dream of mine come true! Will be ordering more volumes.

Excellent volume
Format: Paperback, Format: Paperback
I love this volume. It was well done with high quality paper and also has the colored pages of the original Japanese version. I'm not a fan of slip covers, and i feel the same for this volume. The actual cover looks kinda plain and uninspired, but the slip cover looks great (it's done in the art style of later volumes). I do like the texture of the slip cover and i wish it was the actual cover- that's my only complaint. Besides the great paper quality, the pictures are very clean, i forgot how good the art actually is- it's much better on paper than online! The pictures i took don't do it justice! If you're a Baki fan (or if you like martial arts manga in general) i would definitely recommend.
