Thirty-one epic stories from Australia's award-winning author David Malouf.
David Malouf's imagination inhabits shocking violence, quick humor, appealing
warmth and harsh cruelty with equal intensity. He shares tales of bookish boys,
taciturn men and intimate stories of men and women looking for something they
seem to have missed, or missed out on. This is a comprehensive compilation of
David's shorter work. Stories are set in the stark and challenging Australian
interior and the more lush and mysterious coastal enclaves; others are set in
Australia's past. The youthful dreams, physical desires and mental despair of
Malouf's richly varied characters as they explore their place in the world are
always moving and universal.
Readers won't want to skim a single page of the 31 stories in this epic
collection, a few of which are novella length. Together, they represent a
quarter-century of a formidable craftsman's career.
