Title: Committing Self Abuse With "Punishing Savagery"!!!(A Quote)
Review: I had to read this book in my Final Year at High School and I didn't like it one bit. Now it is 25 years later and I re read it and found I didn't like it anymore the second time around. The protagonist describes his early life in Melbourne as a boy and how he became obsessed with masturbation in his early teens.He seems to have a fascination with homosexuality as can be seen by an early incident in this book.As a consequence of his twisted personality he becomes a teacher where he enjoys the attention of a "captive audience" namely his students.I am very glad that most Australian Writers do not reminisce about their early life if it was sad and pathetic as this author's was.Read this book if you want to be disgusted and appalled by the pathetic life of this loser.
Is the review positive or negative?
