Break Of Day

Break of Day (1977) by Cliff Green (Coronet) – Crappy Old Books

Sunrise, sentiment, and a fair bit of sheep shearing — Break of Day is a quietly poetic slice of Australian rural life, penned by acclaimed screenwriter Cliff Green. Originally written as a screenplay and adapted into this novel, it captures the nostalgic hum of early 20th-century Tasmania, where an artist’s retreat turns into a gentle love story filled with wistful longing and moody landscapes.

This Coronet paperback edition is charmingly yellowed, with just the right amount of spine-crease to prove someone once cared. A must for fans of pastoral pacing, poetic introspection, or just collecting books that smell faintly of 1977.

Available now at Crappy Old Books — because not everything old is gold, but some of it’s weirdly wonderful.
