From the author of the bestselling novel The Riders comes a bewitching fable sure to delight readers of all ages. A wise exploration of the difference between the acquisition of information and the quest for knowledge, Tim Winton's gem-like ecological fable will warm the hearts of his fans. Illustrations.
Sometimes I get twitchy when I hear the word ‘fable,’ but it’s Tim Winton, so this one is the exception. A lovely novella. It made me homesick even though I was home and the story was set halfway around the world.
