Tight square clean book block, with a little foxing and a couple of age spots. Forst UK edition/first impression.
Come in mylar covered, unclipped dust jacket, a little fraying to top edge (see pics)
Nice copy.
Patrick White's fourth novel.
It is a domestic drama chronicling the lives of the Parker family and their changing fortunes over many decades.
It is steeped in Australian folklore and cultural myth, and is recognised as the author's attempt to infuse the idiosyncratic way of life in the remote Australian bush with some sense of the cultural traditions and ideologies that the epic history of Western civilisation has bequeathed to Australian society in general.
