Agh! It's like de Kretser has gone through her book and stripped away anything with even the whiff of superfluous exposition. Admirable in its way, but it can be really baffling. Just been reading about Hazel's 'second', Robbo, and her 'fourth', Kev. I thought she was on about husbands - took me two and a half pages to twig they were her sons!

"As she passed, his eyes ran over but didn't acknowledge her" (Page 270). Oh, the image that conjures... putting this one aside for now.

Crikey, this is a slog. I found 'The Lost Dog' hard-going and dull too... maybe de Kretser just isn't for me.
