Peter Carey

Jack Maggs and Tristram Smith
He’ll turn a story into a myth
Oscar, Lucinda, and the Kelly Gang
His novels are the fabulous offspring
Of Moby Dick and White Fang
He’s one of only four writers who’ve won
The Booker Prize twice
And, mark my words, he’ll win it
Thrice
Hail Mary!
It’s Peter Carey
