# Boy on a Wire

It is the 1960s in Perth, Western Australia.  For Thomas Muir cool and steady life is a thing that goes on outside him.  But for his brother, hot-headed Jack believer in honesty and justice life must be wrestled to be understood.

Jack Muir's years of survival and his coming of age in a boys' boarding school are sharply revealed in this dislocated memoir.  Jack's story is funny and raw.  It will strike a nerve in those who were there and in anyone who has ever asked how it is that one becomes a man.
