Text Unit Name Institution Year
y separately published work icon Two Shanes Lee Tulloch , Melbourne : Text Publishing , 2001 Z819734 2001 single work novel humour romance (taught in 2 units)

'Two Shanes is Lee Tulloch’s best and funniest novel. A brilliantly plotted romantic comedy that readers won’t be able to put down, it tells the story of two Australians living in New York, a surfer named Shane Dekker, and Cheyne Burdekin, an aspiring actor. The lives of these strangers overlap in hilariously unpredictable ways, especially after Shane meets the dark-haired Finley Rule in a surf shop, and Cheyne’s old flame Avalon jets in from Brisbane.'
