In a world where seventy is the new fifty, old age isn't what it used to be. COVID-19 has changed fundamental concepts of ageing, maturity and mortality. And with the virus's particular impacts on the aged, it's time to challenge – and rectify – the exclusion of the elderly from our culture, and focus on people as people, not as problems to be solved. With exciting new work from Helen Garner, Charlotte Wood, Gabbie Stroud, David Sinclair, Vicki Laveau-Harvie, Samuel Wagan Watson, Andrew Stafford, Jay Phillips, Jane R Goodall, Glenn A Albrecht, Leah Kaminsky, Ailsa Piper and many more, Griffith Review 68: Getting On offers an insightful exploration of the changing truths of ageing – as well as celebrating the triumph of longevity. It's a timely look at the question of how we age successfully – as individuals, as a society, as a population.

Griffith Review 71: Remaking the Balance features essays, reportage, memoir, fiction and poetry that examine our relationship with resources both tangible and intangible, physical and personal. What we grow, eat, mine, burn, transform and manufacture all place increasing stress on the world's ecosystems. And a planetary population of more than 7.8 billion means resources have never had to do more work, both economically and existentially. How can we change what we do with what we have? Work from this edition has been supported by funding from Copyright Agency Cultural Fund and the McLean Foundation.

The way we work has changed profoundly in recent years. This timely edition of the multi-award-winning Griffith REVIEW explores the extraordinary structural changes triggered by globalisation, the internet and the collapse of unions. Job security is a thing of the past—many welcome the flexibility of the new environment while others find it hard to adjust. The Way We Work features stories from the coalface of work—traditional and non-traditional jobs described with insight, flair and passion. Contributors include Ashley Hay, Rebecca Huntley, Gideon Haigh, Peter Mares, Kathy Marks, Craig McGregor, David Peetz and more.
