Doreen is a novel written by C.J. Dennis and published in 1917. The book is set in rural Australia and tells the story of a young woman named Doreen who is torn between two suitors: a wealthy landowner and a poor but charming bushman. The novel explores themes of love, class, and the struggle between tradition and modernity.Doreen is a strong-willed and independent woman who is determined to make her own choices in life. She is courted by two very different men: Jim, the wealthy landowner who represents the established order, and Harry, the bushman who embodies the free spirit of the Australian outback. As Doreen tries to decide between them, she must also navigate the expectations of her family and community, who have their own ideas about what is best for her.The novel is notable for its vivid descriptions of the Australian landscape and its use of the vernacular language of the time. Dennis was a popular poet and writer in Australia, and Doreen was one of his most successful works. The book has been praised for its portrayal of rural life in early 20th century Australia and its exploration of the tensions between tradition and modernity.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
