The first work by one of Australias most awarded and beloved authors. A collection of some of Careys earliest short stories. Bizarre, funny, and chilling, allegorical and fantastic. The stories follow an alter-reality in which a small town of fat men become ostracised by the government and plot to overthrow it. This hardcover first edition had an exceptionally small print run and has become extremely scarce.

First Edition.Queensland: University of Queensland Press, (1974). Small 8vo. Original black publisher’s cloth in original unclipped dust jacket. Pages: 141.
