Suspenseful, vital and exquisitely observed, this unique horizontal narrative is a richly textured portrait of an afternoon in an Australian town in 1953.
Rumbling beneath this is the broader examination of a developing post-war Australia, with issues of the lingering effects of war and violence and an accumulation of cultural change.
Vivid and innovative,1953 is a striking work of narrative poetry, and a magnificent portrait of an Australian town of the period, and a dramatic moment within that.
