A review by carole888
My Brilliant Career by Miles Franklin

4.0

This gives a glimpse back in time at life in some (imaginary) rural towns around Goulburn, at the end of 19th century Australia. The story told from the unusual perspective of young Sybylla who to me is quite irritating & impossible at times, but also likeable, as she’s young and means well. It is interesting to see the style of writing and use of language in the book, also the use of certain words and phrases from that time …. Certain attitudes and prejudices stand out … Good on Sybylla for being true to herself!

This is a Bookclub read for March 2022 - Am looking forward to discussing it with the others.
