Elizabeth Durack: Art & Life: Selected Writings edited by Perpetua Durack Clancy

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good to near fine condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Interior and binding are still excellent.

This book contains extracts from diaries, letters, essays, travelogues and poetry written by Elizabeth Durack (1915-2000) over seven decades. With wit and candour, the writing reveals some of the most important influences and episodes - and the paradox - of her life.

Durack read widely and travelled widely, drawing inspiration from many sources: the men and women she knew; classical Western and ancient Aboriginal traditions; and contemporary politics.
