Publisher Description

From the winner of the Nobel Prize for Literature, a novel that satisfies as much as it challenges.

Eddie Twyborn is bisexual and beautiful, the son of a Judge and a drunken mother. With this androgynous hero - Eudoxia/Eddie/Eadith Twyborn - and through his search for identity, for self-affirmation and love in its many forms, Patrick White takes us on a journey into the ambiguous landscapes, sexual, psychological and spiritual, of the human condition.

Human sexuality woven into an fascinating life

A wonderful book - through rich language, a deep dive into the human mind around the subject of sexuality at a time when the topic could not be openly discussed.
