Sobre IBD

An ambitious lawyer confronts his ideals and his Greek heritage when seeking promotion in an establishment firm in the early ’80s. An introverted TAFE lecturer grabs a surprising way out of her tidy and predictable life. And a would-be lover becomes obsessed after a rude rejection. Robert Horne’s fascinating range of characters haunt the bars, porches and offices of Adelaide looking for answers to questions about themselves. They are often angry, frustrated and confused, but always seeking an opportunity for change. This book of stories is at once challenging and life-affirming.
