Marie Herbillon, « Remapping Australia: Murray Bail’s New Topographies of the Self in the Notebooks », Commonwealth Essays and Studies, ID : 10.4000/ces.281
The Australian writer Murray Bail’s Notebooks feature a change of stance that interrogates the self-place relationship: initially dominated by an ideal of placelessness, they then seek to forge new bonds with a reimagined homeland. This essay examines the political implications of this paradigmatic shift. Arguably, the sense of identity that finds expression in this unconventional autobiography depends, in part, on a radical reconceptualisation of the Australian space.
