Our next meeting is on Wednesday May 29th at 6pm. The book we will be discussing is The Last Pulse by Anson Cameron.
A blackly funny novel about an unlikely hero, and his misadventures on the flood he has created.
In the drought-stricken Riverland town of Bartel in South Australia, after the suicide of his wife, Merv Rossiter steals a boat. He trucks north with his eight-year-old-daughter Em into Queensland. There he blows up the dam at Waroo Station, releasing a flood through outback New South Wales into South Australia.As the authorities search for them, Merv and Em ride the flood south in their stolen boat, rescuing a Queensland Minister from the water, and then a young blackfella who fancies he sang the river to life all by himself.
