Twenty of Australia's brightest and funniest writers share the joys, hazards and
mysteries of fatherhood and how we all relate to 'dad'.
The shape of the family tree has changed irrevocably in recent decades, and
there is no such thing as a 'typical dad' anymore (though dad jokes like
cockroaches, never seem to die). From the grim archetype of the emotionally
distant father to the bumbling man-child who's a pair of underpants away from
being an ape, there has never been more freedom for men to choose what sort of
dad they want to be. Or, for that matter, so many opportunities to stuff it up.
Powerful, hilarious and touching, Father Figures features Anson Cameron, Tony
Birch, James Button, Barry Dickins, Gideon Haigh, Richard Hinds, Dominic Knight,
Malcolm Knox, Benjamin Law, Kate Legge, William McInnes, Mischa Merz, Paddy
O'Reilly, Kerryn Phelps, Angela Pippos, Nick Place, Ben Pobjie, Sami Shah,
Tracey Spicer, Tony Wilson.
