His mother is a pious Catholic. His fellow students are cruel and aloof. But from these elements, all suffused with the mysterious but forbidden attractions of sex, Clement creates an imagined world of his own. Centred on fictional horses, the races they run, and their invented owners, jockeys, and fellow competitors, it is played out with Clement's prized marble collection in the dusty backyard of his home, across the landscapes of the district, and over the continent of Australia. \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAn unsparing evocation of a bygone way of life, \u003ci\u003eTamarisk Row\u003c\/i\u003e's lyrical prose is charged with the yearning, boredom, fear, and fascinations of childhood.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e And Other Stories\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 05\/03\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781911508366\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 288\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.55lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 7.72h x 5.04w x 0.94d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eReview Citations: \u003c\/strong\u003e\u003ci\u003eKirkus Reviews\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/15\/2022\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Gerald Murnane","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":42843557167285,"sku":"9781911508366","price":15.26,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0473\/0804\/6492\/products\/img_e6d58e37-c44f-4902-9aad-2ccfb348d50c.jpg?v=1681811210","url":"https:\/\/pastforward.org\/products\/tamarisk-row-9781911508366","provider":"Past Forward","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
