In 1996, Australian author David MaIouf won the world's richest literary award with his novel Remembering Babylon, which was considered by the IMPAC literary judges to be the best novel written by anyone, anywhere, in any language, in the preceding three years. An lmaginary Life ilIuminates Malouf's life and work.
The compIex and poetic writer talks about his belief in the power of perception and imagination. His novels are driven by emotion rather than story Iine and he is particularly interested in the way people relate to each other, in friendship and the codes of behavior between men.
An Imaginary Life is richIy ilIustrated with archive footage and atmospheric dramatizations from MaIouf's books, including Johnno, Remembering BabyIon, 12 Edmonstone Street, Easier and The Great WorId. It offers an emotive exploration into the life and mind of an extraordinary writer and poet. |
