Winner of the Commonwealth Writers Prize
Ruth Rothwax, a successful woman with her own business, Rothwax Correspondence, can find order and meaning in writing words for other people – condolence letters, thank-you letters, even you-were-great-in-bed letters. But as the daughter of Edek Rothwax, an Auschwitz survivor with a somewhat idiosyncratic approach to the English language, Ruth can find no words to understand the loss her family experienced during World War II.
Ruth is obsessed with the idea of returning to Poland with her father, but she doesn't quite understand why she feels this so intensely. To make sense of her family's past, yes. To visit the places where her beloved mother and father lived and almost died, certainly. But she knows there's more to this trip. By facing Poland, and the past, she can finally confront her own future.
'One of a rare breed . . . a polished stylist with brains, wit, and a message.' Sun Herald
'Too Many Men is [Lily Brett's] masterpiece.' The Australian
'This is writing of a high order of accomplishment.' Sydney Morning Herald
'A very funny writer with a feel for the vagaries of conversation and behaviour.' The Age
