The Age of Cladan

In the middle of the last century an unknown writer emblazoned his credo across Henry Miller's studio wall: at 10 man is an animal; at 20 a lunatic; at 30 a failure; at 40 a fraud; and at 50 a criminal. This is the loosely adopted paradigm that underpins The Age of Cladan: an age-by-page portrait of a misanthrope in Australia.
