Description
Horse is almost twenty, a college drop-out with a job in a steel mill and a girlfriend named Fern with golden brown hair down to her waist. But his drinking, poetry writing, and above all a predilection for the disreputable combine to make him an outsider kicking against the conventions of a small college town in the 1940's. Horse is the only novel of James K. Baxter, New Zealand's greatest poet.
