Double Dissolution by Lee Zachariah

Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners. Faint mark on right foredge.

Double Dissolution is a contemporary election campaign narrative that probes personal and political failures and upheavals and explores possible futures. Lee provides a fresh, informed and suitably baffled viewpoint on the turns of Turnbull, the shifts of Shorten, the darkness of Dutton; he connects with candidates and voters on the road, discovering complacency, belief, and contradictory party narratives.

As the people look for hope and the candidates look for power, Lee looks for answers. If his own fortunes are tied to those of the government, then this might be the most important election of his life.

This is a humorous and intelligent work a timely traversal of landscapes political, emotional, and of the Australian continent itself. (back cover)
