Gulf
ISBN: 9781411656147 / Angielski / Miękka / 310 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This is a long novel, a tapestry of life in rural Australia with all the characters, the localities, the climate and the social life so finely pictured that not one single aspect of the portrayal jars. Reminiscent of John Steinbeck's wonderful pen pictures of rural America and the unique characters that dwelt therein. The story line is good and well maintained. The language is rough but not aggressively Australian and laced with typical wit. The racial prejudice is infiltrated throughout the story so imperceptibly that it becomes almost acceptable as a normal attitude, as does the behavior of...

Australian Patriography: How Sons Write Fathers in Contemporary Life Writing
ISBN: 9781783083381 / Angielski / Miękka / 222 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This study discusses modern Australian life writing by sons who focus on their fathers. Termed patriography (by Couser) or The Son's Book of the Father (by Freadman), this rich field of relational autobiography offers insights into modes of masculinity, notions of identity and heritage and the ethics of representation. The current proliferation of 'father memoirs' in the marketplace demonstrates that such writing is fulfilling and being fuelled by the need to better understand the traditionally lesser-known parent. Beginning with an analysis of the paradigmatic case of the... This study discusses modern Australian life writing by sons who focus on their fathers.

Christos Tsiolkas and the Fiction of Critique: Politics, Obscenity, Celebrity
ISBN: 9781783084043 / Angielski / Miękka / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Christos Tsiolkas is one of the most recognizable and internationally successful literary novelists working in Australia today. He is also one of the country s most politically engaged writers. These terms recognition, commercial success, political engagement suggest a relationship to forms of public discourse that belies the extremely confronting nature of much of Tsiolkas s fiction and his deliberate attempt to cultivate a literary persona oriented to notions of blasphemy, obscenity and what could broadly be called a pornographic sensibility. "Christos Tsiolkas is one of the most recognizable and internationally successful literary novelists working in Australia today. He is also one of t... |

Writing Home: Walking, Literature and Belonging in Australia's Red Centre
ISBN: 9780522871005 / Angielski Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Writing Home explores the literary representation of Australian places by those who have walked them. In particular, it examines how Aboriginal and settler narratives of walking have shaped portrayals of Australia's Red Centre and consequently ideas of nation and belonging. Central Australia has long been characterised as a frontier, the supposed divide between black and white, ancient and modern. But persistently representing it in this way is preventing Australians from re-imagining this internationally significant region as home. Writing Home argues that the frontier no longer adequately...
