Barley Patch - Gerald Murnane

Gerald Murnane is the winner of the 2009 Melbourne Prize for Literature Barley Patch is Gerald Murnane’s first published book of fiction since 1995. It is a meditation on fiction and Murnane’s own dedication to writing, and an examination of the relation between memory, image and lived experience. It is funny, self-deprecating, personal, as well as thoughtful and reflective, and enchanting in its clarity, detail and evocations of Australian life and landscape.

Gerald Murnane was born in Melbourne in 1939. He spent part of his childhood in country Victoria, then moved back to the suburbs of Melbourne in 1949. He has published seven books of fiction, and is a recipient of the Patrick White Literary Award, and an Australia Council Emeritus Writer’s Award.
