Miles Franklin is Australia’s progressive literary star. A feminist and staunch supporter of women in the arts, her novel MY BRILLIANT CAREER (1901) was written when she was a teenager, but it remains a testament to the electric energy of a teen girl of ambition who thinks she’s just too smart and too ugly for this world. We’ve all been there.
