AbstractHistoryArchive Description

Instead of seeing Such is Life in the traditional terms of a celebratory nationalist narrative, Stephen Cowden seeks to locate it within the historical social conflicts of its time. As these issues are still very much alive today, he believes that a re-reading of the novel in this sense assist a greater understanding of the social contours through which Australian identity has been developed.
