This book is an original contribution to literary geography and
commentaries on the work of David Ireland. It plots the
relationship between the spaces and places of 1970s Australian
capitalism as it evolves through Ireland's 1971 Miles Franklin
prize-winning novel The Unknown Industrial Prisoner. In particular,
the book theorises the relationship between space and place in
literature through two highly innovative arguments: a focus on the
spatial unconscious as a means to assess and track the spatiality
of capitalism in the novel form; and the articulation of a regime
of space through the perceived, conceived and lived constitution of
space. Drawing together concepts from radical geography and
structural Marxist literary theory, it explores the dominance of
the regime of abstract space in the Australian context. The text
also examines the nature and possibilities of place-based
strategies of resistance, and concludes by suggesting opportunities
for future research and plotting the ways in which The Unknown
Industrial Prisoner continues to speak to contemporary Australia.
