'He Lacks Almost All the Qualities of the Novelist' : G.M. Glaskin and His Australian Contemporaries
2012
single work
criticism
— Appears in: Republics of Letters : Literary Communities in Australia 2012; (p. 249-256) 'Jeremy Fisher questions why G.M. Glaskin, whose books sold well in Europe and America, failed to find critical acclaim and a substantial audience here. Beyond some influential mentors in his hometown of Perth, Glaskin 'never seemed to fit in to the Australian literary community'. His international standing may not have helped, but neither did his homosexuality, and his frank writing about same-sex desire at a time when such themes were still taboo. (Kirkpatrick, Peter and Dixon, Robert: Introduction xviii)
