Nicholas Shakespeare, a very fine writer indeed, who partly lives in Tasmania, has produced an extraordinary work on the history, culture, folklore and personal appreciation of the country. Full of anecdotes, marvellous set pieces and highly absorbing prose, it’s a lovely read.
From the renowned British author of The Dancer Upstairs comes this ';meticulous, lyrical history' of the remote island and his family's connection to it (Publishers Weekly). Hailed by the Wall Street Journal as ';one of the best English novelists of our time,' Nicholas Shakespeare decided to move to Tasmania after falling in love with its exceptional beauty. Only later did he discover a cache of letters that revealed a deep and complicated family connection to the island.
