The Reading Life of Bob Carr (An Antipodean Political Polymath) - Page 4

Bob Carr is a retired Australian politician who served as Premier of New South Wales from 1995 to 2005; he later entered federal politics as a New South Wales senator, and served as Minister for Foreign Affairs from 2012 to 2013.
This list is based on Carr's book "My Reading Life: Adventures in the World of Books" (Viking, 2008), with a focus on his recommended works of fiction. A rather "cerebral" collection. Item 87 is specifically referring to the Ted Hughes translation of The Oresteia.
