Paperback. Zustand: New. Serialised in 1909-10, The Poison of Polygamy is a rare gem of Australian literature.The first novel of the Chinese Australian experience, it is a roller-coaster tale of blackmail, murder, betrayal and even thylacine attack, partly based on real people, places and events. Revealing the human face of migr…ation between imperial China and colonial Australia, it recounts the story of a man from southern China who tries his luck on the Victorian goldfields, the wife he leaves behind, and their eventual fraught reunion.In this bilingual parallel edition, Australia's and possibly the West's earliest Chinese-language novel is presented in English translation for the first time. Illuminating introductions explore the work's historical, cultural and linguistic context, and establish its unique significance in Australia's literary and social history."A shiny little nugget has been disinterred from the tailings of our literary past . The Poison of Polygamy is an exciting addition to our literary history that deserves to be widely discussed and analysed in both China and Australia." David Walker, Emeritus Professor, Deakin University and author of Anxious Nation"The discovery of The Poison of Polygamy and its publication in this highly informative bilingual edition is a double happiness. It gives readers a highly entertaining new novel, replete with drama, emotion and intrigue. At the same time it documents Chinese Australian life in a key period of history." Nicholas Jose, author of Avenue of Eternal Peace.

Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. Serialised in 1909-1910, The Poison of Polygamy is a rare gem of Australian literature. The first novel of the Chinese-Australian experience, it follows the fortunes of a young man who leaves his wife behind in southern China to seek his fortunes in the Victorian goldfields. In a rollercoaster… tale of blackmail, murder and betrayal, he encounters all manner of perils, from storms at sea to collapsing gold mines and even a thylacine attack in the Victorian bush.As Australia's and possibly the West's earliest Chinese-language novel, The Poison of Polygamy reveals the human face of migration between Qing China and colonial Australia, and reflects important Chinese social and political developments of the time. Historical investigation has revealed that many characters and incidents in the story were based on real people and events. In this bilingual edition, the original Chinese text is presented alongside a sensitive and transparent translation into English, complete with illuminating footnotes. Translator's and historians' introductions discuss the linguistic, cultural and historical context of the novel, and establish its unique significance in Australia's literary and social history. 'The discovery of The Poison of Polygamy and itspublication in this highly informative bilingual edition is a doublehappiness. It gives readers of literature a highly entertaining newnovel, replete with drama, emotion and intrigue. At the same time it documentsChinese Australian life in a key period of history, through a story told withpassion and insight by a Chinese writer for Chinese readers. The eloquenttranslation by Ely Finch and the generous commentary by the translator and hiscolleagues now make this rich material available in English. The Poison ofPolygamy is a valuable addition to Australian literature and to a moreappreciative understanding of the Chinese contribution to Australian societyover many years.' - Nicholas Jose The first novel of the Chinese Australian experience, it is a roller-coaster tale of blackmail, murder, betrayal and even thylacine attack, partly based on real people, places and events.
