Straight Shooter: Autobiographical Stories by T A G Hungerford

Book Description

Secondhand. Good condition. Wear to book corners and edges, particularly front cover right corners.

In 1993, T AG Hungerford was awarded the prestigious Patrick White Award for contributing to Australian Literature. Fremantle Arts Centre Press has combined his three autobiographical narratives into an omnibus edition to celebrate the event.

Together, Stories from a Suburban Road, Red Rover All Over and Knockabout with a Slouch Hat trace Hungerford's life from his childhood in South Perth to his post-war adult life in places as diverse as Beijing, Macau, Manhattan and Antarctica.

These stories do more, however than recapture the past. They are creative works of the highest order to be read and re-read many times over.
