Paperback. Zustand: new. Paperback. From one of Australia's most talented writers comes a moving and compelling novel about the loss of innocence and living on the edge. Arriving in the city with little money, no job, an indifferent mother and brother, and nowhere to stay, a shy, awkward 14-year-old boy drifts from the city to the bush and back again, doing what work he can, slowly becoming more alienated and distrustful . With gathering momentum, the narrative takes successively dangerous turns, propelling the reader toward its tragic conclusion. Fresh Fields can be read as the prequel to Peter Kocan's groundbreaking novellas the treatment and the Cure. Its insights into parental neglect, homelessness, mental illness and the trials of adolescence are all too real, but there is also genuine humanity, compassion, sensitivity and humour in the face of adversity, and these qualities leaven the harsh realities and make for an unforgettable literary experience. Arriving in the city with no money, no job, an indifferent mum and brother, and nowhere to stay, a shy 14 year old boy drifts from the city to the bush and back again, doing what work he can, slowly becoming more alienated and distrustful. This book takes the reader down some dangerous turns to the conclusion. This item is printed on demand.
