THE ROAD FROM COORAIN

Set against the conspicuous and awesome backdrop of Australia, this is a forthright and thought-provoking self-analysis of the author's maturation as a woman, an international scholar and an Australian. Barbara Caruso demonstrates a superb grasp of the writer's spirit and intent. She excels in conveying the powerful emotion and drama of this remarkable story without lapsing into sentimentalism. She also sustains the listener's interest throughout the many expositions on historical and literary theory which are so relevant to the author's life. The powerful reading complements the strength of the book. B.M.W. Winner of AUDIOFILE Earphones Award ©AudioFile, Portland, Maine [Published: MAR 94]
