Full title: Rose: The Extraordinary Story of Rose De Freycinet: Wife, Stowaway and the First Woman to Record Her Voyage Around the World The voyage of Rose de Freycinet, the stowaway who defied the French for love. In 1814, in the aftermath of the French Revolution, nineteen-year-old Rose Pinon married handsome naval officer Louis de Freycinet, fifteen years her senior. Three years later, unable to bear parting from her husband, she dressed in men's clothing and slipped secretly aboard his ship the day before it sailed on a voyage of scientific discovery to the South Seas. Living for three years as the sole female among 120 men, Rose de Freycinet defied not only bourgeois society's expectations of a woman in 1817 but also a strict prohibition against women sailing on French naval ships. Whether dancing at governors' balls in distant colonies, evading pirates and meeting armed Indigenous warriors on remote Australian shores, or surviving a shipwreck in the wintry Falkland Islands, Rose used her quick pen to record her daily experiences, becoming the first woman to circumnavigate the world and leave a record of her journey. Suzanne Falkiner tells this story of courage, enduring love, curiosity, a spirit of adventure, and the pivotal voyages that led to it while revealing a uniquely female view into the hitherto largely male world of 19th-century life at sea.…

Hardcover in Dustjacket. Zustand: Fine / Fine. AUSTRALIANAIn this superbly researched assessment of our literature and its landscape, Suzanne Falkiner takes us on an absorbing journey into the âfictional megacontinentâ of the Australian imagination. Drawing us into the visions of Australian writers past and present, she invites us to share her insights and responses to the mystery of this perplexing continent.

Suzanne Falkiner has mapped this space for us in fascinating detail: her appetite for textual Australia is boundless.âSuzanne Falkinerâs Wilderness is a garden of delights.

Hardcover. Zustand: Very Good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very Good. 1st Edition. Very good condition. Minor wear to book corners and edges. Dust jacket has light creasing at edges and spine. Interior and binding are still excellent. Randolph Stow (1935-2010) was one of the great Australian writers of his generation. His novel To the Islands, written in his early twenties after living on a remote Aboriginal mission, won the 1958 Miles Franklin Award. In later life, after publishing seven remarkable novels and several collections of poetry, Stow's literary output slowed. This biography examines the productive period as well as his long periods of publishing silence. In Mick: A Life of Randolph Stow, Suzanne Falkiner unravels the reasons behind Randolph Stow's quiet retreat from Australia and the wider literary world. Meticulously researched, insightful, and at times deeply moving, Falkiner's biography pieces together an intriguing story from Stow's personal letters, diaries, and interviews with those who knew him best. And many of her tales, from Stow's beginnings in idyllic rural Australia to his critical turning point in Papua New Guinea and his final years in Essex, England, provide us with keys to unlock the meaning of Stow's rich and introspective works.…
