Description:
Winner of the 2010 Victorian Premier's Literary Award for Nonfiction and the 2011 Nita B Kibble Award.



When Miles Franklin-shortlisted novelist Brenda walker became sick she turned to two healers- doctors and books.



This is the story of how she recovered.



Packing her bag for hospital after being diagnosed with breast cancer, Brenda wondered which book to put in. As a novelist and professor of literature, her life was built around reading and writing. Books had always been her solace and sustenance, and now choosing the right one was the most important thing she could do for herself.



In Reading by Moonlight, Brenda describes the five stages of her treatment and how different authors helped her through an arduous recovery. Along with insightful introductions to the work of writers like Dante, Tolstoy, Nabokov, Beckett and Dickens, Brenda show how the very process of reading - surrendering and then regathering yourself - echoes the process of healing.



Reading by Moonlight guides, reassures, throws light on dark places, and finds beauty in the most fearful of illnesses. It affirms that reading can be essential to life itself.



'A work of rare richness and unending generosity of spirit - a beautiful meditation on the gift of reading death and the spirit of survival.' Alex Miller, the Age



'Brenda Walker's account of the healing power of books is a gift . . . beautifully written, heartfelt.' Susie Burge, Harper's Bazzar



'Irresistible . . . A many-layered reading experience.' West Australian

Works, but more desired features wanted
Works well. Love the “shake” feature compared to the last one I had. It actually moves the formula inside of it by spinning the bottle, and to keep it would make the formula heat up faster. Instructions leave a little to be desired for. Not super clear but you can figure it out. However I can’t seem to get it to state how much time is remaining, which could be frustrating with a screaming baby in your arms.

Wrong description listed. Not battery powered.
Be careful if you think this is powered by a rechargeable battery as the description indicates. I needed a battery operated bottle warmer. It's actually corded, so they have the wrong description. Now I get to fill out another return and waste gas driving to return facility.

Works great!
This bottle warmer is excellent! I’ve tried a few and none of them seem to heat the milk at all. I tested this one using a wide mouth bottle filled with 2oz of water. I followed the directions for using a plastic bottle and selected the correct options and added the water. I then turned it on and watched it go. It isn’t loud while operating, but the nightlight is very small and hard to see. Not a big deal to me because I have small lights in my kitchen that I can turn on at night if I need to use this in the middle of the night. The settings on the machine are a little different than when you select options on the machine. It says for a plastic bottle with 2oz on quick is 2:30, but the time was automatic 3:30. I think you have to manually adjust the time according to what the manual suggests. It’s very neat that it spins around gently to ensure the bottle heats evenly. When I took the bottle out it wasn’t so hot that I couldn’t grab it, but I could tell it warmed it well. I obviously had the time too long because I didn’t realize until after that I needed to manually adjust it, but this was just a test run. The water was nice and hot, so I think it would have been perfectly warmed if I had only done 2:30 as recommended. My only issue is typically bottle warmers can also warm baby food, but there is no instruction or anything on how to heat it or how long. I might play around with it and give it a try when I’m ready to make baby food, but for now it’s excellent at heating bottles!

works well
Bc Babycare Bottle Warmer arrived quickly and is as described. It takes very little space on the counter, looks sleek and delivers! It only takes a few minutes to warm up a bottle and it works with both skinny (Dr.Brown's) and wide-mouth (Avent) bottles. It's intuitive and easy to use, and it can be used to defrost, warm up and keep the milk warm. Works well for us.
