VCE Literature Text List 2023: Chimerica by Lucy Kirkwood

Principals/directors, VCE coordinators and VCE Literature teachers

The 2023 VCE Literature Text List on the Literature study page cites this edition of the play Chimerica by Lucy Kirkwood:

  • Kirkwood, Lucy, ‘Chimerica’ in Plays: One, Nick Hern Books, 2016 (ISBN 9781848426191)

The annotation has been amended to list the edition for Chimerica as:

  • Kirkwood, Lucy, Chimerica, Nick Hern Books, 2013 (ISBN 9781848423503)

Teachers and schools should note there are some small differences between the two editions of the play.

The VCAA does not prescribe editions; any complete edition may be used. Examination passages will be selected from the editions nominated in the text list.
