Patrick White, Nobel Prize and Australia’s aborted cultural decolonisation

Reflections 50 years after the 1973 Nobel Prize for Literature

My thoughts on Australian cultural history on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of Patrick White’s #NobelPrize were published by the team @johnmenadue for publishing.

You can read “Australia’s aborted cultural decolonisation” at johnmenadue.com. Thanks again to Aran, John and the team.

You can also listen to my podcast on Patrick White to explore this topic further. The main episode was Why read Patrick White, 1973 Nobel Prize for Literature, the Exile at Home? and the bonus episode was Patrick White and the Stranger Effect.
