Paperback. Condizione: New. Print on Demand. This book showcases Henry Lawson's mastery of humorous verse. These poems, written in the last years of the 19th century, offer a reflection of Australian identities and culture through a working-class lens. Many of the poems within are characterized by a subversion of class dynamics, in which characters such as rouseabouts, shearers, larrikins, and swagmen confront the often-hypocritical nature of the social hierarchies which surround them. Lawson's work captures the gritty reality and struggles of everyday life in the Australian bush, while celebrating the resourcefulness and mateship of its inhabitants. The poems are still relevant today and provide a fascinating snapshot into a bygone era of Australian history. This book is a reproduction of an important historical work, digitally reconstructed using state-of-the-art technology to preserve the original format. In rare cases, an imperfection in the original, such as a blemish or missing page, may be replicated in the book. print-on-demand item.…
