'Australia Felix' rests behind me. I doubt I could take quite so much realism if it wasn't by the Australian George Eliot and about Australia, and I was feeling homesick. As it is, a great nineteenth century novel, which hints at a great twentieth century novel to finish it off. The Proem is astonishing.

'The Way Home' sees our hero rise, unequivocally, to the the upper class of the colony. I don't know if this is true, but I feel that the further we get from his humble origins, the greater the freedom Richardson takes with her style, the more modernist tricks she uses. Could be interesting as a sustained technique.
