A Sand Archive by Gregory Day
4.0
Like sand through the hour glass.....this is no soap opera.
It's a subtle story mainly set in the sixties that expertly shifts from The Great Ocean Road and Geelong to Gascony and Paris. The cultural shifts and character relationships are also handled brilliantly.
Another surprising read, unlike anything I've read before, read from the 2019 Miles Franklin Long-list.
Not sure what sand dune Gregory Day has been hiding under, but I'm glad to have found his writing in this novel and I'll be seeking out his back-list.
