Goodreads Best Modern Australian Literature - Page 2

"What are the best books in the modern Australian literary canon (whatever that may mean)?" (Goodreads)
What more can I say? Even the Goodreads blurb above sounds authentically Australian. The only question remaining is who will be top scorer (AFA I'm concerned nameless Guests don't count).
Books 1-230 had at least 2 votes. Books 231-240 were 'Captain's Picks' by me from the remaining ~250 books on the source list, those which had received only 1 vote.
