Synopsis

Oh No! Not Another Observations of an Ordinary Bloke is the fifth collection in Richard Lancaster's much-loved Observations series. Drawing on decades of life experience, community involvement and storytelling, Lancaster reflects on the people, places and issues that shape everyday Australian life - from Redcliffe history and local identities through to ageing, politics, music, animals, creativity, community spirit and social change. Warm, humorous, thoughtful and at times deeply personal, these essays capture the voice of a Queensland writer who observes the world around him with honesty, compassion and curiosity. Filled with local history, social commentary and heartfelt storytelling, this collection offers readers a uniquely Australian perspective from one ordinary bloke with plenty to say.
