The Death of a Wombat has been called many things: a profound allegorical statement of the human condition, a vivid and deeply moving word picture which sets a standard for imaginative feature writing. So superlatively is the story told, we feel terrible, urgent, personal sense of tragedy in the death of this animal. Now published for the first time, The Death of a Wombat remains the same brilliantly imaginative impression in words, succeeding in being both detailed documentary and superb lyricism. The book was published by Wren Publishing in 1972. It has 80 pages. Mild foxing to endpapers.
