'Commands attention and invites dispute...Brilliant, unobliged and provoking work.' Weekend Australian 'As an introductory text to the Australian canon, The Burning Library is remarkable. Williamson's enthusiasm for Australian literature and his boundless knowledge of the genre give the book an enlightening and accessible quality that brings to life a neglected part of our national heritage which, through Williamson's astute gaze, appears absurd to have let fallen astray. I thoroughly recommend The Burning Library to any reader with an interest in Australian literature.' Readings Monthly
