Epigraph
... nothing is more sweet in the end than
country and parents ever,
even when far away one lives in a fertile place...
- The Odyssey
Dedication
To the memory of Lawrie, and to Gloria
First words
It is a hot spring day and I am in the basement of my parents’ house in Sydney, sorting through tea chests.
Quotations
Last words
We poured the ashes down the golden sandstone, and the rest of the whiskey after them. The rain and the salt spray carried them far away.
