Book group book. Grown up romance (in a good way). Begins in Carlton, Melbourne Uni academia and travels to outback Queensland cattle country. Observational language. Lifelike depictions of camping, swimming in cool rivers, mining settlements, moving cattle, and driving through dark country. Touches on indigenous and settler pasts and the sins of the fathers/ grandfathers. Plenty of symbolism; some a little clunky. About reasoning, clever thinking and the simple things in life. The loss and a return to a meaningful home.
