Description:
Winner, Prime Minister's Literary Award for Nonfiction 2023
Sam Vincent is a twenty-something writer living in the inner suburbs, scrabbling to make ends meet, when he gets a call from his mother- his father has stuck his hand in a woodchipper, but 'not to worry - it wasn't like that scene in Fargo or anything'. When Sam returns to the family farm to help out, his life takes a new and unexpected direction.
Whether castrating calves or buying a bull - or knocking in a hundred fence posts by hand when his dad hides the post-driver - Sam's farming apprenticeship is an education in grit and shit. But there are victories, too- nurturing a fig orchard to bloom; learning to read the land; joining forces with Indigenous elders to protect a special site. Slowly, Sam finds himself thinking differently about the farm, about his father and about his relationship with both.
By turns affecting, hilarious and utterly surprising, this memoir melds humour and fierce honesty in an unsentimental love letter. It's about belonging, humility and regeneration - of land, family and culture. What passes from father to son on this unruly patch of earth is more than a livelihood; it is a legacy.
'Sam Vincent probes deeply into some of the biggest issues of our time ... This book is a celebration of the love of land and builds bridges of understanding that will appeal to a broad cross section of readers.' -Judges' comments, Prime Minister's Literary Awards
'My Father and Other Animals is a beautiful tale of legacy, family, and a millennial findin

Very good perspective on Ephesians
Format: Kindle
For many years much of Christianity has looked to the book of Romans as the best book to help us to understand the gospel. Here N.T. Wright walks us through the suggestion that perhaps Ephesians is a better communicator of the Gospel. This is a great book to challenge you and expand your perspective of Ephesians.

Great book, substandard printing
Format: Hardcover
Really enjoyed this book. Very well written and presented. The concepts presented are very thought provoking. My only complaint is that the book is cheaply printed and bound (hard-cover). For the price, I expected a much higher quality product. The first page was partially glued to the cover, the paper is rough in texture and feels cheap. The cover is not well bonded to the pages with obvious gaps when the book is fully opened.

Brilliant
Format: Kindle
I just love NT Wright. If you’ve read anything he’s written before then you know he’s big on believers being agents of new creation in this world. The phrase he repeats over and over in this book is “small working models of new creation.” Ephesians is about how God has rescued us in the Messiah and made us new humans so we can display what new creation looks like to a watching world. The church is God’s new temple - the place where heaven and earth meet and from where God’s glory spreads to bring renewal like the river in Ezekiel. Our vocation is to do good works that display God’s creativity and cause people to be amazed at His redeeming love. Our unity in diversity, our mutual submission, and our work in the world are all to have this one goal - displaying God’s glory.
