Language: English. Weight: 18.2 ounces. Hardback with DJ. I've been a fan of Thea Astley for decades and highly recommend that you take a look at her work. Sadly, Thea is no longer with us (she died in 2004) , but her work lives on and can be appreciated by everyone with an interest in classy literature. Try A Kindness Cup and The Accolyte. Most of her works are set in Queensland, Australia, and depict Australian culture and society at its highest and lowest points and most places in between. Thea won four Miles Franklin Literary Awards during her career - the Miles Franklin is one of Australia's most prestigious lit awards. They were well deserved. Rumour has it that she was asked to stop entering the award because she was too good! ! In any case, her work speaks for itself. First Edition USA, (1988) so stated.
