The Twyborn Affair
First published in 1979, this is the second-last novel published by the only Australian to win the Nobel Prize for Literature. The sexually ambiguous Eddie Twyborn is encountered in three stages of his life - as Eudoxia, the lover of an elderly Greek man; as Eddie, a jackeroo in the Australian outback; and as Eadith, the madam of a high-class London brothel. This is a paperback reprint in the 'Penguin Twentieth-Century Classics' series.
