Synopses & Reviews

Publisher Comments:

Eddie Twyborn is bisexual and beautiful, the son of a Judge and a drunken mother. His search for identity, self-affirmation and love takes us into the ambiguous landscapes, sexual, psychological and spiritual, of the human condition.

Synopsis:

Eudoxia is the consort of an elderly Greek, Eddie a hired hand in the Australian outback, and Eadith the madam of a London brothel. The novel's central character appears to all three, in France in 1914 and in Australia and London 25 years later. The author won the 1973 Nobel Prize for Literature.
