Carpentaria by Alexis Wright

5.0

I listened to the talking book version of Carpentaria, narrated by Isaach Drandich. And what a narrator he was - insert list of superlatives here. He did have an amazing text work with. The story is intricate, mesmerising, non-linear and told from multiple perspectives. The subject matter is at times heart-wrenching, and at other times hilarious. Alexis Wright writes about race relations in Australia with a sharp wit.
