Camouflage

Here, by the acclaimed author of Eucalyptus, is the perfect gem of a Christmas gift.

The brilliant title story tells of Eric Banerjee, an Adelaide piano-tuner sent north to defend Australia in 1942. ‘The Seduction of My Sister’ describes the increasingly strange events that take place after a new family moves into a suburban street. Murray Bail’s wry humour and haunting power are fully revealed in these stories.

Praise for Camouflage:

‘Bail writes like an angel.’

Judith White, Bulletin

‘Both these stories are remarkable, in utterly different ways: they exhibit the restraint and license of a true literary master.’

Peter Craven, Australian Book Review
