True History of the Kelly Gang
Peter Carey
A historical fiction novel, True History of the Kelly Gang
is told from the point of view of Ned Kelly, the Australian bushranger
and folk hero. The novel may be challenging for students to read due to
the unconventional writing style and punctuation, but the action-packed
story of robberies, shootings, and horse thefts will surely hold their
attention. The tale demonstrates the corruption of authority and
lawlessness that was prevalent in 19th century Australia.
