Hardcover. Zustand: Good. 352 pages. dj worn.Set in an Australian prison two centuries ago, this novel depicts the complex interplay between unruly prisoners and their guards and Lieutenant Ralph Clark' s attempt to stage a play using convict players Editorial Reviews From Publish ers Weekly The production in 1789 of a prisoners' performance of The Recruiting Officer provides the framework upon which the Australian author of Schindler's L ist and A Family Madness hangs this rollicking, thoughtful tale of his country's earliest days as England's furthermost prison. Amongst the tents and ramshackle huts of the first settlement on Sydney Cove, young Lt. Ralph Clark (a real Roya l Marine who wrote a real journal) auditions such convicts as Ketch Freeman, hig hwayman, and Mary Brenham, thief, for the roles in the comic drama. Ralph doesn' t dislike New South Wales or his duty there, but he longs for his sweet wife Bet sey back in Plymouth and determines not to allow distance to diminish his faithf ulness to her. As rehearsals proceed, layered life in the penal colony unfolds: provost marshall Harry Brewer is plagued by the ghost of a young Marine private recently hanged for fighting; Sydney's governor captures, and is captivated by, a handsome young native; prisoners and privates steal and deal; odd alliances ar e formed and sundered; and Ralph is increasingly drawn to the quietly self-posse ssed Mary Brenham. Ralph's resolution of his dilemma coincides with the play's s taging in honor of the king's birthday; both are successful ventures.
