Hold your breath! Eddie Betts is coming to sign copies of his sometimes funny, sometimes tragic and always honest – often laceratingly so, memoir The Boy from Boomerang Crescent.

This is an inspirational life story of a champion, in his own words. Whether he’s narrating one of his trademark gravity-defying goals from the pocket, the discrimination he’s faced as an Aboriginal person or the birth of his first child, Betts’s voice – intelligent, soulful, unpretentious – rings through on every page. The very human story behind the plaudits is one that will surprise, move and inspire.
