Miles Franklin: Her Brilliant Career by Colin Roderick

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor edgewear. Pages are sunned.

An intriguing book about a unique woman. Colin Roderick wrote this book to restore Miles Franklin to what he believed to be her rightful place in the Australian story: not so much a feminist, but a creator of a new mode in Australian literature.

Colin Roderick was closely associated with Miles Franklin for ten years proceeding her death in 1954, and she nominated him, in her will, as one of the original judges of the Miles Franklin Literary Prize. (back cover)
