Lantana Lane Book

Whilst Eleanor Dark lived most of her life in Katoomba at Varuna, in 1951 she and husband Eric went to Queensland, escaping the repercussions of both being named in federal parliament as communist supporters in 1947. They bought a farm and began to grow macadamias and citrus fruit, and she wrote 'Lantana Lane'. It is a book about living in a rural community a little separate from the rest of the world. It gently satirises the 1950s materialist, bigger, better, faster, smarter social conventions. The image of lantana in the book, a noxious, exotic plant covering the detritus of society, was used to good visual effect in the 2000 Australian movie 'Lantana' (director: Ray Lawrence).Read More
