Description - The Australian Yarn by Ron Edwards
Ron Edwards has travelled the outback collecting yarns for many years, and adds to the collection a perceptive essay analysing the structure of the yarn.
This collection of Australian folklore is rare in its authenticity. All the yarns were told to the author first-hand so the voice of the storyteller is strong and clear. These yarn spinners are authentic outback characters cattlemen and stockmen, farmers and drovers, labourers and the stories touch on every aspect of their lives to create a remarkable picture of Australian bush society.
