More about the book
Most Australian love stories confront or subvert the happy-ending stereotype or the tragic-lovers myth. Distance, hardship, and the particulars of history have all played a role in this transformation of gender roles and desire. Goldsworthy here draws together canonical authors, successive generations of urban sophisticates, and younger contemporary writers in this chronological anthology on romantic, sexual love.
