An Author Bites the Dust
by Arthur W. Upfield (Doubleday & Co., 1948)
audiobook read by Peter Hosking (Bolinda, 2010)
Bony is particularly energetic this case, the Yarra Valley setting rendering his bushcraft less germane than a bonhomous interest in people and his knack for pursuing odd, imaginative lines of inquiry. Miss Pinkney and Mr Pickwick provide charming evidence of Upfield’s popularism.
