The Order of Things. A Life of Joseph Furphy. Hardcover
ISBN 9780195531879 / 0195531876
Publisher: Oxford University Press , 1990
Used – Near Fine. This book tells the life-story of Joseph Furphy, the author of Such is Life. It is the story of a remarkable man and a remarkable achievement. After struggling unsuccessfully to make a living as a selector and then as a bullock-driver, Furphy spent over twenty years working as a mechanic in his brother’s foundry in the central Victorian town of Shepparton. Until now the full story of Furphy’s life has not been told — his previous biographer could not tell all she knew, and was unaware of many of the sources which John Barnes has been able to draw upon. Includes dust jacket.
