The Lucky Galah by Tracy Sorensen

4.0

Interesting, unusual book, told in first person from the perspective of a pet Galah and third person of the inhabitants of a small Australian town on the West Coast, in the late 1960s.

Not entirely sure about the ending - falls a bit flat and the story jumps back and forth through decades without much warning.

However, it feels very Australian at its heart and I enjoyed the author’s foray into the inner workings of the mind of one of our most beautiful and playful birds. 3.75.
