AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Howard Jacobson traces the footsteps of Germaine Greer, Barry Humphries, Clive James and Robert Hughes arguing these Australian giants didn't just join the cultural revolution in the 60s, they led it.

'The Gang of Four are at their peak: Hughes becomes Time Magazine's art critic; Germaine writes The Female Eunuch; Clive becomes a junior member of the London literati; Barry makes a Barry MacKenzie movie.' (Production summary)
