Description:


Richard
Flanagan: Critical Essays is the first book to be published about the
life and work of this major world author. Written by twelve leading critics
from Australia, Europe and North America, these richly varied essays offer new
ways of understanding Flanagan's contribution to Tasmanian, Australian and
world literature.

Flanagan's fictional worlds offer empathetic,
often poignant, renderings of those whose voices have been lost beneath
official accounts of history, stories from a small region that have made their
mark on a global scale. Considering his seven novels as well as his non-fiction,
journalism and correspondence, this collection examines the historical and
geographical factors that have shaped Flanagan's representation of Tasmanian
identity.

This collection offers new insights into a
determinedly regional writer, and the impact he has had on a local,
national and global scale.
