Landscape with Landscape David Bausor When his eccentric mother PetFive of the six stories in Landscape with Landscape trace a suburban journey in the 1960s, as the writer negotiates the conflicting demands of Catholicism and sex, self consciousness and intimacy, alcohol and literature. In the sixth story a Paraguayan man imagines a country called Australia, while his son sickens before his eyes. Murnane is unlike anyone else, the sort of writer who demands to be read in a new way but, above all, demands to be read.
