What is Her: A Novel about?

Out in that country the sun smeared the sky and nothing ever altered, except that one day a scrap man came by . . .HER name is scarcely known or remembered. All in all, she is worth less than the nine shillings and sixpence counted into her father's hand. She bides her time. She does her work. Way back in the corner of her mind is a thought she is almost too frightened to shine a light on: one day she will run away. A dark and unsettling tale from the turn of the twentieth century by a master of Australian literature. 'an accomplished, arresting, harrowing novel, replete with horrors even as it tempts us towards hope' - Peter Pierce, **WEEKEND AUSTRALIAN**'HER is almost **flawless** ' - **SATURDAY PAPER**'This distressing but compelling book has echoes of the Barbara Baynton classic *Bush* *Studies* ' - **SYDNEY MORNING HERALD, THE AGE**'His lyrical prose paints a picture of a historical Australia both beautiful and barren, and serves up a lead character you love and support from the first time you meet her' - **HERALD SUN**'The pleasures of a book that depicts dusty poverty, drunken brutality and mendacious manipulation lie in the evocative writing, the fine detail of country life
