Ben Coady is the epitome of what Oldies call a hippy. He is five foot six inches tall, has green eyes and 18 inch long brown hair. He wears a ragged beard and moustache liberally sprinkled with colonies of lice and nits. He loves surfing the big tubes when he is not downing a cold one or blowing a joint with his equally unkempt mates. He has a knack for getting into all sorts of strife and usually comes out of it by the skin of his smoke-stained teeth.
He spent eight years in jail for a diamond heist. Set in the 1970s when petrol was leaded and cell-fones weren't even a dream, The Can was written while Ben was jail. It tells the story of how he came to be there, following a series of crazy, hippy, larrikin events with his equally crazy mates, that will keep you incredulous and laughing... A chance for you to get away from the PC and know what it was like 40 years ago on the NSW Nimbin-vego north coast.
After a few years both were released on licence. Violet later died in a house fire caused by her smoking in bed. What happened to Bruce is obscure; there are indications that he breached the conditions of his licence and was sent back to jail for an unknown time, and/or that he moved to Western Australia.
Dr. Mathews met Bruce when he was in jail in the 1970s; Bruce gave him this and another book (Daze of Our Lives, forthcoming), both written by Bruce while he was in jail (and censored in parts by the Dept. of Corrective Services), to be published. Now, some 35 years later, with changes in technology allowing e-publications, that wish can be fulfilled.
Dr. Mathews also met Violet and other members of the Roberts family.
