Pinter's Son Jim is Henry Lawson's only completed play. While it has been performed a handful of times and was included in Lawson's complete works, this marks its first publication as a stand-alone work, more than 100 years after its completion. A love story, detective story, slapstick comedy and tragedy rolled into one, Pinter's Son Jim features some of the best-loved recurring characters from Lawson's short stories, most notably the irrepressible Mitchell. Featuring a new preface and The Hero of Redclay, a short story based on the play, this edition shows a lesser-known, yet still vital, side of Lawson's hymning of the men and women of outback Australia.
