/lit/ - Literature

Personal copy of /lit/'s Australian lit recommended chart with what I've read marked in red. If someone can find the normal one and post that'll be wicked because I can't seem to get it off the Wiki.

I'm hoping to actually read all of this year as a bit of a silly personal challenge but I've been saying that for ages and I'd rather just have read all of Patrick White's novels or something.

I really like what I've read of Patrick White (Voss, Tree of Man and Happy Valley) and highly recommend Voss. For those playing at home - Voss draws from Leichardt's last expedition and goes a bit Heart of Darkness/"man seeking to be God" with a bit of a metaphysical love story element to it. It's fun.

I still love how Mary Gilmore and all those socialists just said "fuck this" and started a commune in Paraguay.

It's amazing what you can achieve by taking the piss.
