Halibut Jackson by David Lucas
Halibut Jackson is a very shy person who prefers not to be noticed at all, so he makes himself clothing to match his surroundings. When he is invited to a party at the Palace, he researches hard, and sews quickly--only to discover when he gets there that the party is a garden party. A jeweled suit of silver and gold is definitely going to get noticed. But everyone admires it tremendously, and his world becomes a more interesting, colorful place to be
Lucas, David: - David Lucas is a sixty-four-year-old lawyer, who also manages the Self Managed Family Office (www.smfo.com.au). He is intrigued by the bewildering array of answers to the question why? that humans have given over 130,000 plus years. The contradictions that are inherent in being human-ingenious, naive, stupid, creative, devilishly cunning, messy, kind, cruel, perverse, emotional, unpredictable, logical, self-judging, self-excusing, drama-loving and so drama-creating, altruistic, pitiless-means that the stories to be told of humans are limitless. His legal practice allows him to experience the best and the worst of us. He was born in Fern Tree Gully, Melbourne, is an avid follower of Brisbane Lions in the Australian Football League, and lives by the beach in Freshwater, Sydney, with his partner, Cath, and dog, Summer.
