Bruce Bennett: The Literature of Western Australia.

sehr guter Zustand, geringe Gebrauchs- und Alterungsspuren: Schutzumschlag gering defekt und teils etwas vergilbt - Seiten sauber und ordentlich, This book is a guided tour through the imaginative literature of Western Australia. It consists of a series of descriptive and critical surveys of the main forms of creative and critical writing in Western Australia: letters, diaries and journals, the novel, the short story, poetry, drama, books for children and literary journalism. By concentrating on the different forms of literary expression, the authors of these chapters have been able to show change and development in literary endeavour in Western Australia since the early nineteenth century. In addition, by quoting generously from the works chosen for discussion, they give something of the flavour of those works and the points of view and attitudes of their authors. Taken together, these essays provide the most comprehensive and reliable account yet available of the literature of Western Australia, Leinen, ca. 18,5 x 25,5, 304 Seiten mit zahlreichen Bildern
