I finished the book and really loved it. It’s one of my favourite lit club selections, though I had a feeling beforehand it might be since I love the film so much as well. It’s not so similar in style but it does bring to mind Tirra Lirra by the River as another Australian lit club selection that I also really loved; I also really liked The Secret River, and Eucalyptus has a unique quality to it. I wasn’t quite as taken with Remembering Babylon but still with two of my favourite club selections coming from Oz, for me we’ve had a great track record on our Aussie selections. I have more to say about Picnic but I want to take a little time to digest it and read over all the comments now having read the entire selection.
