Summary
The Son<U+0146>s Book of the Father, as Richard Freadman termed it, is a rich field of relational autobiography, offering a unique set of tensions and insights into modes of masculinity, notions of identity and the ethics of representing another<U+0146>s life in writing one<U+0146>s own. [NP] This study of modern Australian life writing by sons who focus on fathers places an emerging sub-genre within its literary ancestry and its contemporary milieu. Providing compelling readings of Raimond Gaita<U+0146>s <U+0145>Romulus, My Father<U+0146>, Peter Rose<U+0146>s <U+0145>Rose Boys<U+0146> and many others, this is the first study of its kind within Australian literature.--, Provided by publisher
