Summary

Chris with 'One' by Patrick Holland. From State Library of South Australia Facebook post, 15 December 2016: "More of #ourfavouritereadsin2016 from State Library staff. Chris organises our nominations for the Dublin Literary Award. He's a man who knows a good book! 'One' by Patrick Holland Truly excellent. I couldn't put this book down in the evenings, except to sleep. The author has used an old time way with words to transport us back to the highlands and plains of central Queensland, where bushrangers roamed and police gave chase. He gives the characters a hefty dose of human frailty, both meanness and compassion, conveying the harshness of life in the Australian bush at the turn of the 20th century. - Chris"
