The World is Round is a lively novel, which tells the story of Jean, a lovely and likeable young Sydney woman with literary aspirations. First published in 1896, the vitality and immediacy of this Australian classic are as startling and attractive as the insouciant charm and exuberance of the heroine's personality. Pointed satirical portraits of society evenings are painted compassionately, with gentle humour but unerring perspicacity. This tragicomic novel is witty, vibrant, and ultimately a powerful drama of a woman's path to self-knowledge.
This edition of The World is Round is introduced by the novelist and travel writer Nancy Phelan.
