From the Australian bush to the cafes of Paris; from the highs of first love to the lows of failed ambition, this is an unforgettable, rollicking and deeply moving family story.

Review of 'A fraction of the whole' on 'Goodreads'

Densely philosophical, riotously funny, ultimately touching. The length keeps me from giving this a 5 - while enjoyable, it could've been reined in a bit - but immediately after I read the last page I'd already decided I'm going to have to read it again! This one may yet be promoted to a favorite...
