Richard Flanagan connects family memories with major events of the twentieth century.
The interest lies in how apparently distant histories can converge in a single life. Choose this for writing that moves between intimate recollection and a wider historical field, asking how chance, consequence and memory shape the stories people inherit. It invites connections rather than a neatly isolated personal narrative.
WHO IS IT FOR?
For readers interested in reported lives, ideas and the forces shaping contemporary experience.
