The Penguin Henry Lawson: Short Stories

Literature & Fiction

LAWSON, Henry

British & Irish

Penguin??Books

One of the great observers of Australian life, Henry Lawson has become part of the Australian national psyche, and his short stories and verse have come to affect how Australian's view their country.Yet at his best Lawson transcends even the very bush, the very outback, the very up-country, the very pub or selector's hut he conveys with such brevity and acuity: he makes specific places universal. Henry Lawson is too often regarded as a legend rather than a writer to be enjoyed. In this selection Lawson is revealed as a writer whose delightful, humorous, wry and moving short stories continue to delight generations of readers. This is the essential Lawson collection - the classic of Australian classics.

Bush Undertaker P/B (Alt) (Arkon)

Hnry Lawson is probably the most renowned Austrailian poet ever.To say that Henry Lawson upon his death has now become a classic is to miss the real meaningof the man. The true student can never ignore his work, but his appeal is infinitely wider. With every decade that appeal must increase; for, reading Lawson, our children's children will hear the living voice of those who laid the foundations of all they prize and love....David Mckee Wright.
