AbstractHistoryArchive Description
The novel progresses from a quietly lyrical evocation of Sydney after the second world war to a painful climax in today's city of parting ways. Half-smiling, half-mournful, it is both a moral fable-of the loss of Eden yet again-and a superbly crafted tale for our times. (Publisher's blurb, back cover)
