Greetings from Bullarto, in the State of Victoria, Australia. I’m about half way through my first Pat Conroy book, The Prince of Tides. Henry Wingo has just bought the gas station (or as we would call it the petrol station) and he and the kids are at the circus.
It took me a little while to appreciate the language and engage with the plot, but now I’m in and hooked and know that this won’t be my last Conroy. Thanks for the website, it’s a great way to see how others having enjoyed what I’m now enjoying. The Great Santini is next.

Peter Francis welcome to 'Pat Conroy' - I say this as a welcome to a world you have not heard of before or ever experienced. As I said decades ago you will raise and fall with the greatness of the English language at its best... like riding an unique surf wave coming to your shore. You can see the order of his books on this site... Read whatever order you decide but starting with past to the latest will give you an unprecedented look at his evolution... no matter what you choose you'll be handsomely rewarded...
