The Drover's Wife

3.5, this is a really interesting read! It dives into the history of Henry Lawson, looks at several different perspectives and readings of the classic story 'The Drover's Wife' and also examines its impact on Australian literature and its place within the Australian cannon. There were several interesting essays and short stories in here - I particularly liked the queer reading of the Drover's Wife and Henry Lawson's life. Overall a worthwhile read, although some essays are quite scholarly, while some are more colloquial. But I guess that just adds to the interest of the collection.
