Elizabeth Harrower was born in Sydney in 1928. She lived in Newcastle until her family moved back to Sydney when she was eleven. In 1951 Harrower traveled to London and began to write. Her first novel, "Down in the City," was published there in 1957 and was followed by "The Long Prospect" a year later. In 1959 she returned to Sydney, where she worked in radio and then in publishing. Her third novel, "The Catherine Wheel," appeared in 1960. Harrower published "The Watch Tower" in 1966. Four years later she finished a new novel, "In Certain Circles," but withdrew it from publication at the last moment, in 1971. It remained unpublished until 2014. "In Certain Circles" is Harrower's final completed novel, though in the 1970s and 1980s she continued to write short fiction. She is one of Australia's most important postwar writers. She was admired by many of her contemporaries, including Patrick White and Christina Stead, who both became lifelong friends. Her novels are now being acclaimed by a new generation of readers.
