On Luck

MUP’s new series Little Books on Big Themes pairs leading Australian thinkers and cultural figures with some of the big themes in life: rage, experience, longing and ecstasy. Each author’s 10,000-word take on a chosen theme is presented as an eminently collectable hardback.

In her challenging, provocative essay Anne Summers picks apart Australians' cherished belief in luck and being lucky, and suggests that maybe we can do better.
