A review by joellie
The Dickens Boy by Thomas Keneally

fast-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? Character
• Strong character development? No

3.0

Entertaining enough to listen to while doing other things. I don’t know if it would have held my interest in print. Not much character development and, although based in history, is complete conjecture.  Although characteristic of the time in which the book was set, I still found the author’s depiction of the indigenous people demeaning.
