| Publisher Description: Art & Life contains extracts from diaries, letters, essays, travelogues and poetry written by Elizabeth Durack (1915-2000) over the course of seven decades. With wit and candour, the writing reveals some of the most important influences and episodes - and the paradox - of her life. Durack read and travelled widely and drew inspiration from many sources: from the men and women she knew; from classical Western and ancient Aboriginal traditions; and from contemporary politics. |
