This delightful autobiography is the story of Miles Franklin's first ten years, spent partly on her parent's station in the mountain valley of Brindabella, not far from the present day Canberra. It is a world of the high places and graceful living which she portrayed in her novels, here recaptured with unfaltering warmth and simplicity.
The most charming of Miles Franklin's writings, Childhood at Brindabella was written in 1952-53, but not published until after her death in 1954.

�ber die Autorin bzw. den Autor

Franklin grew up in isolated bush regions of New South Wales that were much like the glum setting of her first novel, My Brilliant Career (1901; filmed 1980), with its discontented, often disagreeable pioneer characters; yet, she was passionately attached to these regions. Franklin’s feminism and her outright rejection of traditional women’s roles made her books controversial in Australia (Encyclopedia Brittanica)
