“A vivid account of the life of the poor and unemployed fringe-dwellers of an Australian country town during the Depression, Tiburon is peopled with a wide range of vigorously drawn characters, observed with both wit and sympathy.  Jessica Daunt, the fastidious schoolteacher from the city, learns more of life from them than she can teach.”
