Need a break from Manning Clark - Lord knows how McKenna did this for eight (or was it seven) years!! I call it up close with the desert of another's mind - we're all somewhat desolate to each other when our diaries are opened up!

I'll persist in this book cos Clark has played such an integral role in Australian cultural history and, of course, I am an Australian experiment after all.

Oh biography! Unfair intimacy but courted by vain Clark. Reading of the pretentious, hung-up, vain, needy and emotionally exploitative (at least when it came to Dymphna his fiance) Clark in Oxford is especially tricky - not only because he's harder and harder to like but because it reminds me of times when I was possibly as self-obsessed and arguably as awful as that.
