Most of all, Salter repeatedly praised McCain, a man for whom he has worked for 19 years, and for whom he has boundless respect. He recalled traveling with McCain to Iowa and New Hampshire after his campaign collapsed in 2007 under the weight of mismanagement and poor fund-raising. "There was nothing except a mental and emotional confidence - this is what I set out to do, and I will do this. And if I fail, I fail - but no one will tell me I failed until I have," Salter said.

...Everyone knows that, deep down, they’re a messy tangle of faults and imperfections. Many of us—me included—spend boundless energy pretending we’re an exception to that rule. We put our best face forward, and hope no one will bother to probe underneath...

...weird sense of displacement (the wildlife and astronomy are different, but these old Aussies with their Scottish, Irish and English accents are familiar), it is because + David Malouf writes about his historical compatriots as if they had never left the British Isles. Their bodies may be in the boundless Down Under, but their heads are still full of neat patches of sod, heather and greensward. Not to mention the God of their fathers, who blesses the seeding of new continents. The dangers of cultural crossings are unavoidable, as Malouf's title suggests. Fairley, a white man with Aboriginal ways, represents...
