The Cockatoos: Text Classics

Author(s): Patrick White; Gail Jones (Introduction by)

Classics

These six short novels and stories achieve the majesty and power of the best of Patrick White's great novels. They probe beneath the surface of events - a sexual lapse, the unaccustomed climate of a foreign country, interruptions in a cherished routine, a death, a toothache - to expose a deeper, truer reality.'To read Patrick White...is to touch a source of power, to move through areas made new and fresh, to see men and women with a sharpened gaze.' Daily Telegraph(London)'The Cockatoos...is superb. It is a slow, beautiful dance of love and death.' Chicago Tribune Book World
