Craig Harrsion is the author of Quiet Earth which is a very dark novel.
Grievous Bodily couldn’t be more different. It’s a laugh-out-loud story of which begins with the discovery of $100,000. That leads to chaos which the finders couldn’t have imagined including mistaken identity, thwarted lust and close encounters with cow pats, puddings and pigs’ heads.
It’s another of the books I re-read each year and I laugh just as much with each re-reading as I did with the first.
It’s out of print now, you’ll have to try Trade Me or second hand shops. It was read on Afternoons a year or two ago so an audio copy may still be available.
