#Sometimes the most important lessons are learnt at lunchtime
Told over the space of one lunch hour at a busy Brisbane high school, In a Common Hour is an empathetic and thoughtful book with a central mystery at its heart.
About The Book
Parks State High is a melting pot of misfits. There is Oliver Fish, the teen philosopher hiding a secret relationship; Dev Patel, hopelessly in love with the brilliant Maryam Fadel; and a staffroom thick with gossip, camaraderie and burntout teachers. At the centre of it all is well-loved teacher, Paul Bush. But when a disgruntled student makes a devastating move - one lunchtime is all it takes for Bushie's life to change forever.
With a cast of unforgettable characters, In a Common Hour is a smart, funny and wise novel that shows us all the ways we are connected.
