Book Description

This book is the definitive political biography of one of Australia's most celebrated and controversial writers. Throughout his prolific and passionate writing career, Hardy grappled with the relationship between literature and truth – a question that was to dog his personal life with dramatic consequences. Here, for the first time, previously unpublished archival documents reveal the long-hidden secret that Hardy protected with a guilt silence that he maintained to the day he died. (book flap)
