Australian Fiction
This is the story of Graham, a nine-year-old lad living in country New South Wales around 1960. Life on the family farm is far from idyllic for Graham though, as he is confronted by a series of challenges; dealing with the realisation that he has been adopted, a difficult relationship with his philandering father and the tragic decline of the health of his much adored younger sister.
And then there is the discovery of a mysterious man living like a hermit in Paddy?s Gorge. Fortunately, Graham is a resolute lad surrounded by a sufficient number of life-affirming adults and friends to enable him to overcome the many challenges life has thrown at him.
