Description

Drift
by Brian Castro.

William Heinemann, Port Melbourne, 1994.
First Edition hardback.

‘Brian Castro’s fifth novel is perhaps his most complex and certainly his most political. Like all his work it is productively playful, punningly irreverent and deeply concerned with sex and death, fact and fiction, but also more seriously with the redemptive possibilities of art and the existential power of the novel – all in the context of Australia’s contested history.’ – From the Introduction by Katharine England.

Condition: Very good. Signs of wear on edges of cover.
