PERHAPS A GIFT VOUCHER FOR MUM?: MOTHER'S DAY
Stuart Everly-Wilson lives in the Northern Rivers of New South Wales with his partner and their dog, Aspro. Low Expectations is his first novel.
'Wild and uninhibited...with an unforgettable cast of characters whom I Immediately started to miss when I closed the book. There's no shortage of brutality-this is, after all, a story about grudges, long memories and revenge-but there's deep love and empathy among this strange cast of suburban exiles.' * Jock Serong * 'The power of this book...comes from its uncompromising first-person descriptions of what it is like to be different and highly intelligent in a world filled with ignorance, prejudices about disability-and everything else-and the small noxious worlds people create for themselves and others.' * Herald Sun * 'Starts out... in the Holden Caulfield vein, but Devon is both funnier and more interesting as he explores the forces that have shaped his life.' * Sydney Morning Herald * 'The artfulness of Devon and business partner Tammy will have you cheering for them from the sidelines...Eye-wateringly funny.' * Otago Daily Times * 'Stuart Everly-Wilson has created one of the most unforgettable characters I have been introduced to in a long time...For me, the thing that sets this novel apart is the genuine care I developed as a reader for Devon. A brilliant debut.' * Good Reading *
