Hardback. Mena Abdullah And Ray Mathew, Angus and Robertson. Condition remarks:Book: Good , ex-libraryJacket: Wear and tearPages: Good Markings: Ex-library with usual markingsA celebrated work of Australian short fiction, The Time of the Peacock chronicles the lives of an Indian Muslim family navigating the complexities of identity, belonging, and cultural displacement in rural New South Wales. Through a series of interconnected stories narrated largely through the eyes of a young girl named Nimmi, the collection illuminates the joys and quiet sorrows of living between two worlds - the rich traditions of South Asian heritage and the vast, unfamiliar landscape of mid-twentieth-century Australia. The prose carries a lyrical, tender warmth that transforms everyday moments - a festival, a friendship, a family gathering - into profound meditations on difference and acceptance. Groundbreaking at the time of its 1965 publication, the work remains a landmark in multicultural Australian literature, presenting voices and experiences that had been largely absent from the national literary conversation. Hardback.
