AUSTRALIANAIn this superbly researched assessment of our literature and its landscape, Suzanne Falkiner takes us on an absorbing journey into the âfictional megacontinentâ of the Australian imagination. Drawing us into the visions of Australian writers past and present, she invites us to share her insights and responses to the mystery of this perplexing continent. The Writersâ Landscape is Suzanne Falkinerâs unique contribution to the emotional mapping of the Australian experience.A major new Australian literary work.Back in the 1940, writers were preoccupied with time, real and imaginary. In the nineties we are concerned above all with reading space within the Australia we have imaginatively created. Suzanne Falkiner has mapped this space for us in fascinating detail: her appetite for textual Australia is boundless.âSuzanne Falkinerâs Wilderness is a garden of delights. This is one of the most imaginative, innovative and useful books on Australian literary culture to emerge for some time. 248 p., [24] p. of plates : col. ill. ; 27 cm. #211123 Australian literature -- History and criticism Landscape in literature Literature and society -- Australia Australia -- In literature Elizabeth's Bookshops have been one of Australia's premier independent book dealers since 1973.
