The human and political story of the last man to be executed in Australia, Remember Ronald Ryan won the 1995 Victorian Premier's Literary Award. Dickins portrays the man behind the legend as loveable, cheeky, courageous, and wretched. This edition includes a new monologue spoken from Ryan's perspective that 'speaks to a new audience from his poor and unmarked grave'.
