Overview
Michael Wilding's Wildest Dreams is a blackly-comic fictional memoir that follows the fluctuating hopes and aspirations of Graham, from his arrival in Sydney in the sixties eager to scale the literary heights, to the depths of teaching creative writing in the US in the nineties. Frequently diverted by sex, drugs and political protest, he pursues the literary life - writing, reviewing, being reckless at writers' festivals and launching his own publishing company with the irrepressible Bobbie. Graham belongs to an exotic circle of radical, talented, often deeply paranoid friends and rivals, and there is sure to be a scandalized interest in decoding who is who. This insider account documents how things are done in Australian literary affairs.Book Details
