Kangaroo presents a compelling narrative set in post-World War I Australia, following the disillusioned English writer Richard Lovat Somers and his wife as they seek a new life amidst the continent's vast, untamed landscapes. This novel chronicles Somers's entanglement with a burgeoning fascist movement and a socialist group, illustrating the ideological conflicts and personal struggles of a man searching for meaning in a world grappling with political extremism. Lawrence masterfully captures the raw beauty and unsettling power of the Australian environment, weaving it into a psychological drama that questions the nature of power, community, and individual freedom. The prose is rich and evocative, drawing readers into a deeply introspective and often unsettling journey through a pivotal historical moment. It ultimately offers a profound meditation on the human condition and the search for belonging in a turbulent era.
