![]() ![]() We encounter a castle, a shanty, a shack, a cinema, a mansion, a cottage. The locations that are expounded on are Checkesolvokia and too many places in Australia to care. ![]() REALLY! I wished there had been an accomplished author. Everyone is proficient! There is a prodigy piano player, renowned interior designer, expert doctors, brilliant photographer, successful scriptwriter, movie producer, biologist, entrepreneur. Besides the protagonist, characters comprise in part of, sister, mother, father, step father, step father’s girl friend, aunt, uncle, uncle’s wife, nephew, landlord, boyfriend, husband, lover, sister’s husband, landlord, camera man… and sooo many more. Alexandra tries to create an interesting and complex fiction but ultimately bores with too many conflicts, characters and ideologies! Silver Wattle’s conflicts journey along murder, mental illness, polio, tuberculosis/consumption, high risk pregnancy of twins, murder AGAIN, and (I jest not) a snakebite. This novel is like a rag rug, pieces of other people’s masters. ![]()
