Ivan Southall dies
Australia has lost one of its literary treasures, Ivan Southall, who died on the 15th November at the age of 87. Mr Southall was particularly prominent during the 1960’s and 1970’s, when he penned one of my favourite books from childhood – Hill’s End - a story about children who must fend for themselves in the Australian bush when a wild storm attacks their town. His other novels include award winning classics Josh and Ash Road.
