The diaries of Donald Friend; v.4.

Ed. by Paul Hetherington.

The culmination of a project by the National Library of Australia, this volume is the fourth and final volume of the diaries of Australian artist Donald Friend (1915-1989). It covers his time spent in Bali, his return to Australia and final decade there, spanning 1966 to 1988. While in Bali, he had guests such as Mick Jagger and the Duke and Duchess of Bedford, and wrote about Balinese domestic and religious activities, traditions, village life, and landscapes. He describes encounters with friends and colleagues, such as Richard Griffin, Mitty Lee-Brown, Geoffrey Bawa, Russell Drysdale, and gallery owners and others, as well as insights on himself. The volume includes about 70 drawings. Hetherington is editor of volumes two and three of Friend's diaries. Distributed in the US by Antipodes Books & Beyond, Ltd. (Annotation ©2008 Book News Inc.
