《辛德勒名單》作者 托馬斯.基尼利作品!
知名英國作家狄更斯最小的兒子愛德華被他的父親送到澳洲發展,在原住民族與澳洲廣袤的大陸上追求自己的夢想與生活,並回溯腦海中的父親與母親的記憶。
The award-winning author of modern classics such as Schindler's List and Napoleon's Last Island is at his triumphant best with this "engrossing and transporting" (Financial Times) novel about the adventures of Charles Dickens's son in the Australian Outback during the 1860s.
Edward Dickens, the tenth child of England's most famous author Charles Dickens, has consistently let his parents down. Unable to apply himself at school and adrift in life, the teenaged boy is sent to Australia in the hopes that he can make something of himself--or at least fail out of the public eye.
