Annotation

A dystopia set in a future collapsed and divided Sydney, Australia devastated by climate change, with an overwhelmingly hot sun. The central character is a mutant who is caring for mutant children, teaching them to read from the few books he has scavenged. The novel transitions into something of a horror story with the mutant fighting a monster. Much of the novel is in Australian slang, and there is a “Straya Glossary (Abridged)” on 5-7.
