This month's play is Louis Esson's Diggers' Rest [aka The Road of Improvement, The Fossicker and performed as the inaugural production of The Pioneer Players as The Battler in 1922]. Also I'm making available two further Esson collections: his complete Verse; and his complete Prose Fiction and Journalism ... the latter including an extraordinary series of articles that provide insight into our provincial drama immediately post Federation. Next month: Kate Howarde's Possum Paddock
