"Now a motion picture titled Ned Kelly starring Heath Ledger. Our Sunshine is the tale of a man whose story outgrew his life. Robert Drewe’s strikingly imaginative re-creation of the inner life of Ned Kelly, the National Hero and Devil Incarnate of the Antipodes, is written with brilliant clarity and impressionistic economy. It carries the reader into a dreamworld of astonishing and violent revelation, an entrancing and frightening landscape of murder, sexuality, persecution, robbery, vanity, politics and corruption. Robert Drewe is one of Australia’s foremost literary authors."
