Beschreibungen
Based on the lives of real people in Somerset on the borders of Exmoor, Miller tells his own story of a young labourer swept up in the adventure of riding second horse in a west country stag hunt. Finding himself in a closed social system in which he has neither status nor power, the young man identifies with the aberrant Tivington nott stag, which, despite its lack of antlers, has become a legend in the district for its ability to elude the hunt and to compete successfully with the antlered stags in the rut.
Alex Miller has twice won the prestigious Miles Franklin Literary Award, Australia's premier literary prize; the first occasion in 1993 for
The Ancestor Game, and again in 2003 for
Journey to the Stone Country. He is also an overall winner of the Commonwealth Writers' Prize, for
The Ancestor Game, in 1993. British by birth, he now lives in Victoria.
