Patrick White is a giant among the moderns. His massive novels,
which chart the lonely paths to truth, challenge orthodox notions
about fiction and reality. He has created a wholly new kind of
prose to embody his prophetic visions of truth and his fierce
denunciations of modern society. Originally published in 1984, John
Colmer's study of the Nobel Prize winning Australian novelist was
the first to survey all his published works. It differs from
earlier studies in using fresh autobiographical material, in
revealing the links between the plays and the fiction and in
stressing White's vision of duality rather than his much praised
affirmations of harmony. Where previous studies have been
exegetical this one is also evaluative. It illustrates the process
by which White has come to recognize the necessity for the
reintegration of the alienated visionary into society.
