A brilliant meditation on the past of one man and the history that coalesced in his existence' Guardian 'Flanagan's portrayal of his quiet, brave father and his loving, resilient mother is exquisite. His evocation of the texture of life in rural Tasmania is masterful' Daily Telegraph 'A beautiful, unclassifiable novel-cum-memoir... That it is a masterpiece is without question' Observer 'Sometimes a book is an experience felt almost in the body... A celebration of all life, it is also a reckoning with the 20th century... It is intimate, beautiful, unsparing and profound' Anna Funder
