Fly Away Peter by David Malouf

1.0

fly away peter is definitely a book that i probably wouldn't normally gravitate towards if i were in a library or a bookshop (i had to read it 4 skool). whilst reading this i kept telling myself that the style of writing was "too descriptive" although some people could say that it's poetically written. there are some parts of the book that were a total bore to read and slightly confusing too. the parts about the war were very insightful as to what it would actually feel like to be in the war and it was nice to see/read(?) that these parts were not so romanticized as most war books are. overall it was an okay book. i probably won't reread it in the future.
