AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'Set in mainly in Aix-en-Provence and Marseille of the 1970s 'Lines of Flight' is a feminist Künstlerinroman about a young Australian woman’s struggle to break from ‘daddy’s bag of images’, out of the entrapment of patriarchal perspectives, to find new ‘lines of flight’ into creative becoming as an artist and as a woman.'

'A sketch of the book industry might situate publishing as an intermediate step in the chain that carries the book from author to reader. In fact, publishers are more dynamic figures in the whole process than such a view allows. Publishers and publishing houses are the most powerful group in the industry. Some publishing houses are geared to the mass market book while others focus on books with a more limited readership market. What the author-reader view ignores is the push-pull of competition and co-operation between publishers and its effect on the book industry.' (Author's abstract)
