Hardcover. Zustand: As New. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Fine. 1st Edition. The Shepherd's Hut tells the story of Jaxie Clackton, raised with domestic violence and emotional poverty, in a small town that turns a blind eye to his mother's bruises. She won't leave his abusive alcoholic father. Her escape is to die of cancer, leaving her teenage son to endure the thrashings alone. It's told in the first person, giving fucked-up, foul-mouthed Jaxie room to let loose: "the prose equivalent of a good long slug of room-temperature rum," Good Weekend described it. When his father dies in a sudden accident in the opening pages, Jaxie is terrified he'll be blamed and flees north deep into the Wheatbelt. Starving and dehydrated, he comes upon a vast salt lake. And on its border, an old shepherd's hut. There lives Fintan, a defrocked Irish priest hiding a secret. He's been there eight years. Twice a year someone drives in supplies and asks him to atone for his sins. He never does and the sins are never revealed, though there are hints at some kind of political scandal. He takes Jaxie in, gives him food and water, and nurses him into health and a prickly, cautious friendship. He give me a pannikin of tea and he sat back down and drunk his slow and methodical. I looked back at that bead thing on the shelf. It was way out of place in a hut like this, in an old dude's stuff, and he could see me sussing it out and I thought for sure he'd get on his hind legs and say fifty-nine things about it but the look on his face said that wasn't gunna happen, like it was off limits.Good chops, I said.
