The world is changing fast, although the news is yet to reach the small South Australian town of Penola. There Robbie leads an idyllic life of rabbiting, backyard science experiments, and hooligan scrapes with his friend Billy. Penola is oblivious even to its minor celebrity as the birthplace of the poet John Shaw Nielson, but poetry means the world to Robbie’s new teacher from the city, the stylish Miss Peach, a sixties sophisticate with stirrup pants, Kool cigarettes and Vespa scooter.

Miss Peach’s artistic yearnings and modern ways prove too much for the good people of Penola, but they fire Robbie’s precocious imagination and burgeoning sexuality, until what begins as a schoolboy fantasy has terrible, real consequences.
