Abstract
"I don't believe that the best of this country's writers will wish to rest on 'identity': that is, to invite the risk that a work will be praised, and even over-valued, for its Australian associations - however striking their effects - rather than for its greater human truth." (Hazzard, Boyoer Lectures, 28)
