Installing himself in the household of a genteel grocer, he attracts the attention of a cross-section of society. Saucy Mercy Larkin wants him for a mate. Writer Tobias Oates wants to possess his soul through hypnosis. Maggs, a figure both frightening and mysteriously compelling, is so in thrall to the notion of a gentlemanly class that he's risked his life to come back to his torturers. His task is to shed his false consciousness and understand that his true destiny lies in Australia.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Peter Carey","offers":[{"title":"New","offer_id":44171730059507,"sku":"9781760896447","price":22.99,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0634\/4284\/5939\/files\/9781760896447.jpg?v=1703277056","url":"https:\/\/www.harryhartog.com.au\/products\/jack-maggs-peter-carey-9781760896447","provider":"Harry Hartog Bookseller","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
