29 186 y separately published work icon His Natural Life For the Term of His Natural Life Marcus Clarke , ( trans. Hertha Perez et. al. )agent with title Pentru toată viaţa : roman ) Romania : Junimea , 1978 Z1032375 1870-1872 single work novel (taught in 15 units)

'Scarcely out of print since the early 1870s, For the Term of His Natural Life has provided successive generations with a vivid account of a brutal phase of colonial life. The main focus of this great convict novel is the complex interaction between those in power and those who suffer, made meaningful because of its hero's struggle against his wrongful imprisonment. Elements of romance, incidents of family life and passages of scenic description both relieve and give emphasis to the tragedy that forms its heart.' (Publication summary : Penguin Books 2009)
