The Scent of Eucalyptus by Barbara Hanrahan
Mingling fact and fantasy, innocent lyricism and harsh realism, this is a rich portrait of a child's world set in an ordinary suburban house in an Australian city. The author has also written "Sea-Green", "The Albatross", "Kewpie Doll" and "Annie Magdalene".
Born in Adelaide in 1939, Barbara Hanrahan was a celebrated artist, printmaker and writer. Her first book, a semi-autobiographical account of her childhood, The Scent of Eucalyptus, was published in 1973 to rave reviews. It was followed by another twelve novels and two short-story collections. Her last book, Good Night, Mr Moon, was published in 1992, the year after her death from cancer. The Barbara Hanrahan Fellowship for South Australian writers was established by her partner, Jo Steele, to honor her memory and contribution to Australian literature.
