The most remarkable novel yet from the internationally acclaimed author of Death of a River Guide and The Sound of One Hand Clapping, this is a marvelous historical epic of 19th century Australia, a world of convicts and colonists, thieves and catamites, whose bloody history is recorded in a very unusual taxonomy of fish.

Book Details

First Sentence

"a normal crush of anxieties waiting to return to a normal confinement, and where no-one ever dreamt what it was like to be a seashore, abnormal things like becoming a fish wouldn't happen to you. I say perhaps, but frankly I am not sure."
