picnic at hanging rock
#3
This was one of the few assigned school texts that I actually liked.
They did make a movie from the book back in the 1970's I think. Mostly I remember lots of pan pipes in the soundtrack.
I quite enjoyed the book's inconclusive ending and wish I hadn't read the 'final chapter' which was published after the author's death. I can't remember details now, I must have read it 20ish years ago, but I do know it was huge at the time and that I was disappointed in it.
I think a lot of this book's mystique can be found in the fact that nobody knew what had really happened, including the only survivor of events.
