Hardback. Robert S. Close, Rigby Limited Adelaide. Edition: First editionCondition remarks:Book: Good Jacket: Chipped and worn with some minor damagePages: Good Markings: Previous ownerCondition remarks: Light wear at bottom of jacket - otherwise still structural and illustrations still bright. In **With Hooves Of Brass**, **Rob…ert S. Close** returns to the raw, visceral storytelling that defined his earlier works. Set in the dense, towering timber country of Victoria, Australia, the novel is a gritty exploration of isolation and the primitive forces of nature. The story centers on a small group of timber-getters and their families who live in a world governed by the rhythmic thud of the axe and the constant threat of the forest. The narrative focuses on **Jim** and **Hester**, whose lives are strained by the harsh environment and the arrival of a newcomer who disrupts the delicate balance of their secluded community. As tensions rise under the canopy of the great blackwoods, the characters find themselves caught between their personal desires and the unforgiving reality of their surroundings. Close's prose captures the heat, the dust, and the psychological toll of the bush, culminating in a powerful climax that tests the endurance of the human spirit. Hardback.
