Works about this Work

Antipodean Romance, Crime and Sensation : Australian Popular Fiction in British and American Markets 1890-1925 David Carter , 2013 single work criticism

'Australian literature', in this view, was international (and not merely imperial) before it was ever national' (p. 86).

His friend is horrified…’ (From author’s introduction 111)
