Sidney Nolan, Nobel prize winner Peter, and naughty old Ned: all brought together in one classic literary hoodie.
Carey recalls becoming slightly obsessed with Nolan's Ned's when he first saw them in Australia at just 21, before explaining that it was his re-discovery of them at age 56 that inspired him to write his masterpiece. He goes on to describe Ned as Australia's 'imaginary founding father'. Which is rather a strange statement. Until you read the book. And realise that Ned's life was most definitely not 'entirely thrown away'.
This comfy unisex hoodie salutes Ned Kelly: bank robber, horse thief, murderer, and man.
