Books like Flying Hero Class

I have come to trust Kenneally to choose exciting plotlines for placing his complex moral dramas. This time it is a Palestine plane hijack and a crisis that challenges the core of each individual.The psychological element of the hijack and the moral dialogues among the characters are brilliant. The stress of the situation also makes each character lose their identity.3 of the passengers are tried as criminals by the terrorist - An American Jew who does business with Iraq, a British columnist who writes against the Palestine and Frank McLeod - our hero.Mcleod is a weak willed tour manager of the Aboriginal dance troupe (who are out to civilise the world by making them relatives). A failed author, a bad husband but a good human being is accused of knowingly allowing the Aborigines to be exploited for land.The terrorists themselves are shown conflicted (discussing cars, back stories) and the abo troupe is diverse as well. The parts about the dance and the abo dreams are surreal. The interactions between the diverse set explain human nature and very well written.A very engaging read that is bound to leave an impact. Not the best - but breaks stereotypes.
