For the Term of His Natural Life
A novel by Marcus Andrew Hislop Clarke, an Australian novelist and poet of the 19th century focuses on unbearable, painful life of the Tasmanian exiles of the time. This work combines descriptions of numerous dramatic events and vivid, dismal pictures of the colonial times in Australia. A staggering account of penal servitude in Tasmania laid bare the inhuman methods of English administration of justice. Clarke’s novel, adapted for film in 1926, became conductive to awaken the civil self-consciousness in the Australian people.
