Please read Tennant's The Battlers for Gen 3 week.<br />Read Terra Nullius before The Old Lie.<br />Read Eliz MacArthur by Michelle Scott Tucker because she's a really nice person and it's a great book<br />Read The Swan Book because it's the best, most literary book written by an Australian this century.<br />Read one of the C19th ones. I've read a few of them, An Australian Girl is my favourite.Bill Hollowayhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08226596508434055521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1483877654474162845.post-63476099784959684382019-12-11T08:48:53.169+11:002019-12-11T08:48:53.169+11:00Oooops!

Only Oscar Wilde could mix hilarious one-liners with murder and drug addiction & get away with it.<br /><br />There are, however, a lot of books on this list I'm looking forward to your thoughts on!reesehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15818057262934008241noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1483877654474162845.post-64915363399844039302019-12-10T21:27:58.838+11:002019-12-10T21:27:58.838+11:00List:
