Description

Hugh Walker has it all. He's a successful young lawyer with a beautiful girlfriend and a million dollar office view. So why does he identify more with his resident cockroach than Atticus Finch, his childhood hero? Once upon a time he was the defender of the abused, the voice of the oppressed. But now he's turning a blind eye to suspect time sheets, championing the powerful against the powerless, and not being entirely honest with his girlfriend. Has his good side deserted him? Is there a way show more back? A bitingly satirical novel about one man's search for his soul.. in the most soulless of places. show less

A great comic read. Based on teh travails of a young Sydney lawyer, working for one of the major firms, and teh absurdity of all of that.

Was rumoured to be based on true experiences and that the various real firms both feared and savoured being outed as teh base of the story.

Suspect it was an amalgam.
