Radiant,

This review is from: The Twyborn Affair (Penguin Classics) (Mass Market Paperback)
In his autobiography, Patrick White calls this one of his three best books.
(The other two: The Aunt's Story and The Solid Mandala.) I agree. It shimmers with his usual lustrous prose. And the journey of his main character through various incarnations--drag queen in Greece, WWI soldier in France, jackaroo (ranch hand) in Australia, and finally expatriate again in England--is little short of amazing. It is also eye-opening about White himself, and his parents. Brilliant stuff. As always with White, while reading it you have the sense that you are not reading but listening to your own mind. Or listening to God's mind. Wonderful.
