WINNER OF THE ACFW AWARD 2020 FOR BEST CONTEMPORY FICTION 3rd PLACE
OF ANGEL BOOK AWARD 2020 FOR CONTEMPORARY FICTON The Blackwells are
a family with an extraordinary history and astounding traditions,
which include attending their own funerals before they die! Their
ways are questionable and their stories about deceased relatives
are as bold as their red hair, but it is their eclectic wares that
keep tourists coming back to their market in the town of Coraloo.
Charlie Price, whose world has come crumbling down after a lapse in
judgement leaves him unemployed, finds himself flung into the
chaotic world of the Blackwells when he relocates to Coraloo with
his socialite wife, Velveteen, and shy son, Gideon. Here Charlie
attempts to make a living as a 'picker', reselling under-priced
items he picks up at the market. Charlie soon finds this new way of
life under threat and his quest for simplicity seems to be
crumbling. Perhaps it's time for Charlie to have a funeral of his
own?
