Power, journalism, and a father and three sons
A critique of a novel by Tony Morphett examining how power shapes personality within a newspaper dynasty. The father dominates the industry while his sons learn power in war, school, and modern life. The review praises the atmosphere and journalistic voice but faulted for weak character distinctness and overemphasis on technique. The father stands out as the strongest figure, with potential for adaptation as a film script.
