Voss by Patrick White

Voss is difficult and formidable, yet it also proves to be one of the greatest novels of our time. I might agree that some of the colonial adventures shown in the book might seem old-fashioned to the new readers, but I would say almost every sentence of this book is calculated and purposeful. Seldom there have been writers who have such a balanced command over liminal spaces in our psychological and physical horizons of nature. The novel rides astride on two boundaries enriching the story with movement. The words move like sharp darts across the fertile landscape to the bleakest thoughts of its memorable characters until they merge to create a mind-bending portrait of new realism.
