This might be my new fav books - I dunno, it's between this and CloudStreet. These characters are so dirty and bad and human and real. The writing describes hatred and revenge but every sentence is beautiful. The wife is so nasty but she's what a real human is, in her environment. God, I love her. I love Harry and Honey and all of their flaws. I love this, I don't know why Australian literature by male authors resonate with me so much. I'll be forcing this into so many people's hands :-)
