Catalogue synopsis
Project Gutenberg supplies this automated synopsis of the opening text:
"Jonah" by Louis Stone is a novel published in 1911. Set in the slums of Sydney, it follows Jonah, a hunchback larrikin who leads a street gang called the "Push." When he becomes a father, his world shifts dramatically, forcing him to confront his past and attempt to escape the violent, impoverished life he's always known. Stone's work captures a neglected phase of Australian society with humor, observation, and unexpected kindness, painting an unflinching portrait of slum life and the possibility of redemption.
