The story of Harry Hodby, his father and brother Keith living in a small town somewhere in Australia. The scenery is described in poetry like prose as they live, fight, play and work in their community along with a mix of likeable and unlikeable characters. Funny at times and also sad at others, I highly recommend this book. ( ) no reviews | add a review
