Description
From the first novel published in mainland Australia in 1838, women have been writing it for themselves. Among them are poets, prolific novelists such as Rosa Praed, botanists like Louisa Atkinson. From household names to obscurity, this book rediscovers the rich treasures of Australia's literary tradition. It is the first critical analysis of the major Australian women writers of the 19th century.
