With an introduction by Evie Wyld The Idea of Perfection by Kate
Grenville is a funny and touching romance between two people who've
given up on love. Set in the eccentric little backwater of
Karakarook, New South Wales, pop. 1374, it tells the story of
Douglas Cheeseman, a gawky engineer with jug-handle ears, and
Harley Savage, a woman altogether too big and too abrupt for
comfort. Harley is in Karakarook to foster 'Heritage', and Douglas
is there to pull down the quaint old Bent Bridge. From day one,
they're on a collision course. But out of this unpromising
conjunction of opposites, something unexpected happens: sometimes
even better than perfection.
