Notes

  • Dedication: For my mother
  • Epigraph: Fat Cherry is a good name all round. So's Ort Flack. All the other kids in the district have got names like Justin and Scott and Nathan and Nicholas which are piss poor in anyone's book. Even my chook has a better name than the kids at school. (Tim Winton, That Eye, The Sky.)
