IRELAND, David

IRELAND, David
(1927-)
   Australian writer whose A Woman of the Future (1979 US), his best known work, depicts a bizarre but positively conceived future which his protagonist finds congenial. City of Women (1981 UK), on the other hand, presents a FEMINIST vision of separatism whose ending befits its Alice in Wonderland style, as the vision turns out to be the hallucinationof a lonely woman. Archimedes and the Seagle (1984), a fantasy, presents the memoirs of a dog.
