Book excerpt: The White Witch is an adventure story by Jack McLaren. McLaren was an Australian novelist who wrote novels based on his life experiences. Excerpt: "The natives nodded understandingly, for they were old hands at surf-running, and these were the pick of the village. There was a dozen of them, all young, strong men with splendid chests and big arm-muscles. Their skin was the color of old leather that had been unduly exposed to the elements, and their hair was teased out and fuzzed into the semblance of a mop. Each carried a lime-pot fashioned from a gourd. As Sherwin spoke they chewed beetlenut and conveyed the lime to their mouths by means of pieces of flat wood wetted with saliva."

Book Synopsis Australian Books and Authors in the American Marketplace 1840s–1940s by : David Carter
Download or read book Australian Books and Authors in the American Marketplace 1840s–1940s written by David Carter and published by Sydney University Press. This book was released on 2018-07-02 with total page 381 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Australian Books and Authors in the American Marketplace 1840s–1940s explores how Australian writers and their works were present in the United States before the mid twentieth century to a much greater degree than previously acknowledged. Drawing on fresh archival research and combining the approaches of literary criticism, print culture studies and book history, David Carter and Roger Osborne demonstrate that Australian writing was transnational long before the contemporary period. In mapping Australian literature’s connections to British and US markets, their research challenges established understandings of national, imperial and world literatures. Carter and Osborne examine how Australian authors, editors and publishers engaged productively with their American counterparts, and how American readers and reviewers responded to Australian works. They consider the role played by British publishers and agents in taking Australian writing to America, and how the international circulation of new literary genres created new opportunities for novelists to move between markets. Some of these writers, such as Christina Stead and Patrick White, remain household names; others who once enjoyed international fame, such as Dale Collins and Alice Grant Rosman, have been largely forgotten. The story of their books in America reveals how culture, commerce and copyright law interacted to create both opportunities and obstacles for Australian writers.
