Ronald McKie — The Mango Tree

Collins Australia 1989 Paperback, 211pp. The Mango Tree is an evocative journey into a long-lost Australian childhood. It is a novel about a young man growing up in a country town in the early years of the 20th century which, like a faded letter from a forgotten lover, evokes bitter-sweet memories of the dream-days of youth in a world long past. (ISBN: 9780732225292). Good.
