Wake In Fright

John Grant knows he’s in hell. What he doesn’t know is how to get out of it. Now in a snappy, smaller format, and with an introduction by crime writer Peter Temple, it remains fresh, compelling and utterly gripping.

“In the town of Bundanyabba, a young schoolmaster discovers gambling, ruins himself financially, then plunges headlong toward his own destruction in many other ways—alcoholic, sexual and spiritual—and yet, somehow throughout this five-day nightmare there persists a note of hope in man’s incredible resilience. Cook writes astonishingly well, with a fierce economy and a frightening power of visualization.” - New York Times
