Sometimes I feel like writing one of those list books, even though I hate them. This one would be called A Pile of Wonderful Books You Won't Read Before You Die. Because Nobody Does. And John Clanchy would feature. Although I know lots of avid readers in Australia, the only one who even recognises the name isn't connected to his writing, it's because they both worked at the ANU. Sigh. This is short stories and one episodic piece which is sixty-six pages. It concerns the Murphys and is called wait for it, pun coming: 'Murphy's Lore'. On the dangers of reading. No, it was the boy worried her. He got too much inside himself. It's not good all that rummacking about inside your own head, and reading, and him to the library three times this week already, books are all right in their own way there's value in books her own father would say and him never read one in his whole life, value in books, but you need to get out once in a while. The boy asks if he can wear one of his father's detachable collars. The father is reluctantly interrogating him. 'What? What the devil are you talking about, boy? No, you can't. We're not here for collars. We're here about your lying tongue.' There is a marvellous section about a priest who teaches the boy and his friends at school. Perhaps it isn't allowed at the moment, writing sympathetically about a priest in the schoolroom, but it is hilarious and who knows, maybe it's good for the soul to read occasionally about a priest who isn't evil incarnate. And how did they know Father Tierney was mad? He had been perfectly normal in their last chemistry lesson. The rest of this scene I've read a dozen times, would happily read it a dozen more - I hope I've tempted you to get the book, just to carry on. the rest is here: https://alittleteaalittlechat.wordpress.com/2019/03/18/lie-of-the-land-by-john-c...
