I have read Temple's Jack Irish books--all excellent--and seen the TV movies starring Guy Pearce, which are also excellent. I've read The Broken Shore--very good--and watched the TV movie of it starring Don Hany--also very good. Maybe if they made a movie of Truth it would be easier to understand the book. The minor threads--Villani's dad and siblings and the trees the dad and Villani planted, and the saga of Villani's addict daughter--are easy enough to track, but the rest of it has too many names and too little explanation, and too much minimalist dialogue and slang.
