Craig Silvey is the author of the novel Jasper Jones, which was published in 2009. The novel tells the story of a 13-year-old boy named Charlie Bucktin who is living in a small town in Western Australia in the 1960s. Charlie becomes friends with a local outcast named Jasper Jones, who is accused of murdering a young girl. Charlie sets out to prove Jasper’s innocence, and in the process, he learns about the town’s dark secrets and the racism that exists within its community. Silvey’s novel has been praised for its complex and nuanced exploration of race, class, and gender in Australia.
Craig Silvey is an excellent author who writes engaging and thought-provoking stories. His novels are always well-written and provide readers with plenty to think about long after they finish reading. I highly recommend Craig Silvey to anyone looking for a good read.
