ah, the memories  :) . know one else i know remembers this book. we read it in engish in high school 20 years ago for a relief from jack kerouac. even then it was old (published 1965). its a little gem though. heres an example of how we speak (",)

`Aorta mica laura genst all these prairlers and sleshers an pervs.
Aorta puttem in jile an shootem.'

even the authors name is strine- afferbeck lauder. afferbeck lauder is the correct sequence you arrange the written letters of a language, eg: A B C D E F G H etc...

you can glean more from here:
