Krátky popis
Winner of the prestigious Miles Franklin AwardProfessor Frederick
Lothian, retired engineer, world expert on concrete and connoisseur
of modernist design, has quarantined himself from life by moving to
a retirement village. Surrounded and obstructed by the debris of
his life, he is determined to be miserable, but is tired of his
existence and of the life he has chosen. When a series of
unfortunate incidents forces him and his neighbour, Jan, together,
he begins to realise the damage done by the accumulation of a
lifetime's secrets and lies, and to comprehend his own
shortcomings.Finally, Frederick Lothian has the opportunity to
build something meaningful for the ones he loves. Humorous,
poignant and galvanising, this is a novel about all kinds of
extinction - natural, racial, national and personal - and what we
can do to prevent them.
