The most recent addition to the complete review is my review of Murray Bail's The Voyage.
First published in Australia last year, it is now out in the UK too, from MacLehose Press -- and is due out in French translation, from Actes Sud, in April. As to a US publication date -- or even publisher -- I haven't heard of any.
I would have thought that Bail deserved better -- and he's not entirely unknow in the US, after all. And this is a book about which, for example, Peter Craven wrote in the Sydney Morning Herald: "We won't see a finer piece of fiction in the longest while."
