Évaluation du vendeur 5 sur 5 étoiles
Paperback. Etat : new. Paperback. LONGLISTED FOR THE INDIE BOOK AWARD FOR NON FICTION 2024deeply powerful and beautiful - Trent Dalton, bestselling author of Boy Swallows Universe and All Our Shimmering Skies a riveting story well told. - Sydney Morning Herald A true story about lies, murder and the Territory Sorry, mate, but thats the message. Zak says to grow some balls and defend him.Youve got to remember he is still a young bloke, stuck in Darwin prison where its always hot, the food is slop and they get rats in the wet season.Its not enough just to help him get out; Zak wants people to accept his innocence and that he was wrongfully convicted.I dont know what you want to do with that, he tells me. Zak Grieve grew up in an outback town, at the crossroads between right and wrong, white and Black, punishment and forgiving. Convicted of a brutal killing despite even the judge saying he wasnt there when it happened, he spent years writing letters describing his hopes and dreams, his role in what happened, and how when the real world came down on him with a tonne of punishment, he wasnt ready. This is a book about growing up, about dying and about writing. In the end, it is only Zaks imagination, given life in the novels he writes inside prison, that hold the key to his survival. In the grand tradition of Helen Garners Joe Cinques Consolation and Chloe Hoopers The Tall Man, this is a gripping story of injustice in the Deep North of Australia. Praise for THE MAN WHO WASN'T THERE: When crime journalist and Walkley winner Dan Box embarked upon this book about a young Indigenous man who claims he was wrongly convicted of murder in the Northern Territory, he admits he was motivated by the lure of another top journalism award. And with that admission, Box signals this is not your ordinary true crime page-turner (although the pages do turn easily). Box himself becomes a character in a complicated, self-aware story about family tragedy, an unlikely friendship, a media ecosystem that can do as much harm as good, and a justice system he comes to see as tragically flawed. - The Guardian Shipping may be from multiple locations in the US or from the UK, depending on stock availability.
