Description

Richard Glover's The Land Before Avocado is a humorous and frank look at Australia's past. It was simpler back then, with more fun and affordable housing. However, what did this era really look like? Glover takes readers on a vivid journey to an almost unrecognisable Australia - a place of funny clothing, appalling food, and staggering attitudes towards those who didn't fit in. Glover's book is a mix of laughter and tears, anger and inspiration. It will leave you wondering how bizarre things were not so long ago. By reclaiming the title fruit from its modern associations, Glover cleverly highlights how far we've come since the 1970s. This is vintage Glover - warm, wise and very funny. A wonderful and witty journey back in time to life in the early 1970s, The Land Before Avocado will make you laugh and cry, feel angry and inspired.
