Trap (1966) won the Miles Franklin Literary Award when it was published. Its comic and satiric elements and use of several narrative voices provide revealing interpretations of cross-cultural relations, bureaucracy and politics in Australia. Peter Mathers was born in England in 1931 and came to Australia with his family as a child. From 1964 and 1967 he worked in Britain and Europe as a researcher. His first writing appeared in the early 1960s, with his novels being published in the 1960s and 1970s.

Reviews for Trap

The American Association of Office Nurses prides itself on presenting quality education experiences in the field of office practice. Books like The Mandated Reporter become a critical resource to nurses whose main goal is to provide quality patient care. -- Mary Ann Jones, R.N., M.A., Founder, A.A.O.N., Montwale, NJ I have found The Mandated Reporter to be the best of its type available and recently adopted it as the text for my Child Abuse and Neglect class at Metropolitan State College in Denver, CO. -- Susan J. Dycus, R.N., Attorney at Law, Professor, Metropolitan State College, Denver, CO The Mandated Reporter brings together pertinent information ... the chapter selection highlights the necessary diagnosing criteria for physical abuse, neglect, and sexual abuse, as well as for the controversial and less known multiple personality disorder and Munchausen Syndrome by Proxy. The chapters on Abuse, Schools, and the Law and Psychological Abuse are excellent and important additions for mandated reporters ... Each chapter is written from a different perspective and by authors from different disciplines and credentials ... -- Wayne I. Munkel, LCSW , Medical Social Consultant, Department of Social Services, Cardinal Glennon Children s Hospital, St. Louis, MO
