For the Term of His Natural Life

Celebrated in Australian literature, this book is about a man who was falsely accused of a murder, and the more he tries to get out it, the more he finds himself in the pickle. The plot is often defined as engaging, the descriptiveness of prison life in the penal colony is brutally honest; the inhumanity of which can make the readers sick and prick their eyes. The characters are rich and scenes, memorable. Even after years, the novel continues to provide a detailed picture of the convicted in colonial-era Australia. Trials and tragedies have had their own niche audience since forever and this one also fits the bill perfectly.
