‘Hilarious … macabre … creates with charming prose a perfectly charmless comic world.’
Jack Hibberd

A finely tuned comic depiction of Melbourne's ethnically diverse northern suburbs and the dark underbelly of city life.

Down on his luck and hard up for cash, Carl works in the kitchen of a seedy rock ‘n’ roll joint in ethnically diverse Brunswick. The bouncers and bosses terrify him, he’s desperately in love with a much younger Greek waitress, and to make matters worse his mother has come to stay with him. Then a dead body turns up. He and his best mate, Dave, will have to do something about it, and fast – or it’s goodnight, Carl. A cult hit later made into a film starring John Clarke, Sam Neill and Zoe Carides, Death in Brunswick is a classic Australian comedy.
