'A cart drove between the two big stringybarks and stopped. These
were the dominant trees in that part of the bush, rising above the
involved scrub with the simplicity of true grandeur. So the cart
stopped, grazing the hairy side of a tree, and the horse, shaggy
and stolid as the tree, sighed and took root' - the stunning opener
to Patrick White's harsh and mythic tale of life in the Australian
wilderness told in spare, elemental prose. Stan and Amy Parker
battle with human and natural disaster, to establish themselves and
their family in a stark and unforgiving landscape, the poetry and
meaning buried deep within their daily struggle. (Kirkus UK)
At the turn of the century Stan Parker takes a wife and makes a home as a small farmer in the wilderness of Australia. Amy bears his children and time brings him a procession of ordinary events - achievements, disappointments, sorrows and dreams. The author won the 1973 Nobel Prize for Literature.
