Harland’s Half Acre

A story rich in passion and incident and with the obsessive, sometimes violent claims of family life.

From his poverty-stricken upbringing on a dairy farm in Queensland, Frank Harland nurtures his artistic genius until the time comes when he can take possession of his dreams.

Inextricably tangled with Frank is Phil Vernon, the only child of a wealthy Brisbane family, whose roots stretch back to England.

Together their voices echo the story of a great country in a novel of remarkable artistry and power.
