Literary Life in Sydney New South Wales in the years 1921-6. Jack Lindsay's new book, though complete in itself, is a sequel to his first volume of autobiography, 'Life Rarely Tells', and continues the story of his youth in Australia.
It is a highly personal narrative of the development of a young poet in a world which he is determined to resist, and includes an account of the author's difficult relationship with his father, Norman Lindsay, a leading political cartoonist and author of several best-selling novels.
