The Plains

I am not sure what I have just read. This is a very strange little novel, plotless, but with writing that is astonishingly clever and at times very witty. Somewhere in Australia is a place called The Plains with descriptions written that gave this reader a sense of wide open spaces, the colours of sunlight and sprawling meticulously well-kept homesteads inhabited by wealthy patriarchal lovers of the arts who live for philanthropy.

Recommended to the esoteric and philosophically minded.
