Peter Carey, in full Peter Philip Carey, (born May 7, 1943, Bacchus Marsh, Victoria, Australia), Australian writer known for featuring the surreal in his short stories and novels.
Carey attended the prestigious Geelong Grammar School and studied for a year at Monash University in Clayton, Victoria. He worked as an advertising copywriter and at various other odd jobs in Australia and England until 1988, when he became a full-time writer. His collections of short stories, The Fat Man in History (1974; U.K. title, Exotic Pleasures) and War Crimes (1979), exhibit many grotesque and macabre elements. His novels Bliss (1981; filmed 1985), Illywhacker (1985), and Oscar and Lucinda (1988; filmed 1997) are more realistic, though Carey used black humour throughout all three. The later novels are based on the history of Australia, especially its founding and early days.
His other works included The Tax Inspector (1991), The Unusual Life of Tristan Smith (1994), Jack Maggs (1997), and True History of the Kelly Gang (2000; film 2019), a fictional account of the Australian outlaw Ned Kelly. My Life as a Fake (2003) and Theft (2006) explore issues of authenticity in literature and art. His Illegal Self (2008) relates the story of Che, the son of radical students who left him with a wealthy grandmother, from whom he is seized and then taken on a continent-spanning journey with the ostensible purpose of reuniting with his parents. Parrot and Olivier in America (2009) is a picaresque work set in the early 19th century. It presents the adventures of two men—one a young French aristocrat (whose portrait is based largely on Alexis de Tocqueville) and the other an Englishman traveling as his servant and protector—as they confront the New World together. The Chemistry of Tears (2012) intertwines the narratives of a contemporary museum conservator reassembling a bizarre automaton and the 19th-century man who commissioned it. Amnesia (2015) uses cybercrime as the lens through which to view the battle of Brisbane, a 1942 encounter between U.S. soldiers and Australian military personnel and civilians. In A Long Way from Home (2017), Carey used a road race in 1950s Australia to explore racism.
Carey twice received the Booker Prize, in 1988 and 2001, for Oscar and Lucinda and True History of the Kelly Gang, respectively.
