Review

"Haunting" (New York Times)

"Stunning" (Sunday Times)

"A torrent of a book – take the plunge" (Independent)

"This novel of spiritual desolation and redemption gathers such an awesome, tragic momentum that the fantastical aspects seem as crucial to the story as do the raging rivers, sheer gorges and imposing rainforests" (Washington Post)

"Death of a River Guide is possessed of both a fierce, seething energy and a limpid, unexpected tranquillity" (Irish Times)

"One of the most auspicious debuts in Australian writing" (Times Literary Supplement)

"A vivid, voluptuous, exhilarating writer" (Sunday Telegraph)

Trade paperback. Condition: As New. In this brilliant, labyrinthine second novel, a drowning man named Aljaz Cosini is granted visions of his family history stretching into the distant past--even as he revisits his final days along the remote and treacherous Franklin River. A series of similarly magical occurrences lends sparkle, if little illumination, to these hardscrabble lives in the Tasmanian wilderness. All of which goes to explain why Death of a River Guide is an unusually rich novel, and one of Australia's most distinguished literary exports in recent years. Seller Inventory # SKU2010024628
