'The most recent study at any length of Elizabeth Harrower's work is found in R.G. Geering's Recent Fiction (Austrahan Writers and their work), O.U.P., Melbourne, 1974. In explaining the choice of writers for consideration - Stow, Kenneally, Harrower and Hazzard - he speaks of them as 'a small group of novelists of a younger generation, who already have a substantial body of work to their credit that deserves more than cursory treatment and who might be expected to add to their reputations in the years to come' (p.3). Unexceptionable as this judgment is, and important though the fact of this study might be, it still leaves unexamined several significant areas of her work.' (Publication abstract)
