“
Deeply moving. Beautifully written. I wept. For John’s dad, and anew—for the loss of my own”
Peter Fitzsimons“
[an] eloquent, visceral essage about wrestling with grief and depression”
Fiona Capp“
This is the most extraordinarily moving book about grief and the final goodbyes we sometimes get to say to our fathers (if we're lucky). ‘On Father’ cements John Birmingham’s reputation as a master essayist.”
Geoff Hughes, Goodreads“
This is among the best of Birmingham’s work, and he again shows his wide intellectual range, his eye for detail and, even while at the nadir of his own sadness, his skill at finding humor in the direst of circumstances.”
Scott, GoodreadsJohn Birmingham
John Birmingham has written for Rolling Stone, Playboy, Long Bay Prison News, Quarterly Essay and The Monthly. His published works include He Died With A Falafel In His Hand and Leviathan: The unauthorised biography of Sydney. He started writing airport novels because they were more fun.
