Good Press, 2021

In 'A Sydney-Side Saxon' by Rolf Boldrewood, readers are transported to the colonial era of Australia, where themes of class divide, cultural clashes, and the struggle for identity are explored through the protagonist's journey. Boldrewood's literary style is characterized by vivid descriptions of the Australian landscape and a keen insight into the complexities of colonial society. The novel's narrative structure is reminiscent of a bildungsroman, as the protagonist navigates the challenges of forging his own path in a society rife with prejudices and expectations. Boldrewood's use of dialect and vernacular adds authenticity to the characters and setting, immersing readers in the world of Victorian-era Australia. A Sydney-Side Saxon' stands as a significant work of Australian literature, shedding light on the cultural and social dynamics of the time. Rolf Boldrewood's own experiences as a squatter and magistrate in colonial Australia likely inspired the themes and characters in the novel, adding depth and authenticity to the narrative. I highly recommend 'A Sydney-Side Saxon' to readers interested in historical fiction, Australian literature, and explorations of identity and belonging.
