註釋
Earlier this year T.A.G. Hungerford was awarded the prestigious Patrick White Award for his contribution to Australian Literature. The winning of the award confirms his reputation as a major literary talent. To celebrate the event, Fremantle Arts Centre Press has combined his three autobiographical narratives into an omnibus edition. Together, Stories from a Suburban Road, Red Rover All Over and Knockabout with a Slouch Hat trace Hungerford's life from his childhood in South Perth to his post-war adult life in places as diverse as Beijing, Macau, Manhattan and Antarctica. These stories do more, however, than simply recapture the past. They are creative works of the highest order to be read and re-read many times over.
