There's something wild in this ''picture of a young girl hungering for life and love in the harsh outback plains of New South Wales''. Banned by the author herself until ten years after her death in 1954, this vivid Australian classic was originally published in Edinburgh.
Miles Franklin
Stella Miles Franklin (1879-1954) was born in the Australian bush. At the age of 21, she became an international publishing sensation with My Brilliant Career, which more than a century later is still regarded as an Australian classic. Novelist, journalist, nationalist, feminist, larrikin - Miles Franklin was all these and more.
