The Not Quite Real Miles Franklin : Diaries as Performance Sandra Knowles , 2005 single work criticism
— Appears in: JASAL , vol. 4 no. 2005; (p. 185-200)
This essay argues that Franklin's diaries are a performance of privacy and authenticity, through a consideration of her diary audience. Her diaries do not reveal an artificial Franklin, but rather challenge the notion that diaries produce authentic representations of their diarists (p.185).
