 English Passengers Matthew Kneale LITERATURE • 2001 • PAPER • 446 PAGES
An accomplished novel, funny yet wrenchingly serious, of cultural collision and rebellion in Tasmania in the 19th century. Its English settlers -- opportunists in a land at the edge of the world -- coexist less and less easily with Tasmania's Aborigines. Winner of the UK's Whitbread Award.
