One of Australia's most respected novelists, Alex Miller's writing
is both popular and critically well-received. He is twice winner of
Australia's premier literary prize, the Miles Franklin Award. He
has said that writing is his way of 'locating connections' and his
work is known for its deeply empathic engagement with relationships
and cultures. This collection explores his early and later works,
including Miller's best-known novels, The Ancestor Game, Journey to
the Stone Country, Lovesong and Autumn Laing. Contributors examine
his intricately constructed plots, his interest in the nature of
home and migration, the representation in his work of Australian
history and culture, and key recurring themes including art and
Aboriginal issues. Also included is a memoir, illustrated by
photographs from his personal collection, in which Alex Miller
reflects on his writing life. With contributions from leading
critics including Raimond Gaita, Peter Pierce, Ronald A. Sharp,
Brenda Walker, Elizabeth Webby and Geordie Williamson, this
collection is the first substantial critical analysis of Alex
Miller's work. It is an invaluable resource for anyone teaching and
studying contemporary Australian literature.
