‘In the Carey novel exploration and especially the journal function as metonyms for the author’s cultural criticism. The procedures of Carey’s exploration party and the attitudes and opinions of its members are very revealing and allow the reader to draw conclusions as to the consciousness of colonial society in general.’ (p. 141)
