This course introduces the fiction of New Zealand and Australia. As we read short stories and novels across the history and geography of these two countries we will hear the voices of Maori and Aboriginal people, of colonial settlers and convicts, of bush farmers and bushrangers, of contemporary men and women. We may note parallels with our own literature in the United States.
