The Man Who Loved Crocodile Tamers (Paperback)


Gina knows hardly anything about her father apart from the fact that he was once engaged to Koringa, a crocodile tamer, and that he is buried in an unmarked grave. In between shifts at a call centre, with Doubt always looking over her shoulder, she works on a novel about him, ultimately drawing back the curtain on a complex, sad but also funny and enchanting life.

A story about love, family, fear and the banishing of fear: a celebration of strong women and a defence of a ‘nervous’ man.

A beautiful book. My favourite Dowling read to date and I adore all her books. It’s a generous, loving, funny, poignant story that returns a damaged man, longing for love, to the very thing he craved. The healing works all ways, touching all.
