By Patrick White
WITH AN INTRODUCTION BY ROBERT MACFARLANESet in nineteenth-century
Australia, Voss is the story of the secret passion between an explorer and a na?ve
young woman. Although they have met only on a few occasions, Voss and Laura are
joined by overwhelming, obsessive feelings for each other. Voss sets out to cross the
continent, and as hardships, mutiny and betrayal whittle away his power to endure
and to lead, his attachment to Laura gradually increases. Laura, waiting in Sydney,
moves through the months of separation as if they were a dream and Voss the only
reality.
