The Slap by Christos Tsiolkas

At a suburban barbecue one afternoon,
a man slaps an unruly boy.

The boy is not his own.

It's a single act of violence, but the slap reverberates
through the lives of everyone who witnesses it.

Told through the eyes of eight of those present at the
barbecue, this acclaimed bestseller is an unflinching
interrogation of the life of the modern family. Poignant and
provocative. The Slap makes us question the nature of
commitment and happiness, compromise and truth.
Whose side are you on?

The phenomenal international best seller is not a major
ABC TV series, so prepare for The Slap to be what 
everyone's talking about - again!
