Gosse Bluff and His Circle

From the meteor crater in Australia’s north-west to the fashionable Galleria in Rowe Street, Sydney, Gosse steps out in mid-century. Sydney, in an era before computers, is relatively innocent. Circular Quay still dips its encrusted planking into the harbour; the coffee shops are just discovering coffee; Krishnamurti could still be expected to walk through the Heads. Here Gosse falls under the spell of several would-be wizards who will spin a tale and lead him into the realms of Romance.
