This cracked paperback fell to pieces while I was reading it, but what a treasure it is! An ancient name by now, but a wonderful read nevertheless. What a shame she’s not widely consumed anymore. Like Miles Franklin’s ‘Old Blastus of Bandicoot’ there’s a major bushfire to spark new events near the ending of this tremendous postwar classic, but it’s the characters that are so memorable. Its humour is incredibly refreshing.
