David Malouf. An Imaginary Life
Description
He is a complex and lyrical poet-novelist whose work, rich in imagery and association, evokes a present in which the past is always just below the surface. In this tantalizing introduction to the fiction and poetry of David Malouf, filmed in 1997, the award-winning writer talks with great humanity about his life and career, focusing on how he relates to the world he so vividly describes. Readings by Oscar-winning actor Geoffrey Rush are skillfully interwoven with archival and specially shot footage of the places and experiences that have shaped Malouf’s unique literary vision.
