Sunday at Kooyong Road is a book by Brian Lewis, a prominent Australian architect, academic, and writer. The book is an account of LewisÕs childhood spent in the Melbourne suburb of Armadale from 1909 to 1921. He was brought up in a close-knit family as the youngest of eight children, and he describes his childhood through twelve years of Sundays, giving a fine sense of life in the years before, during and after World War I. The book also reflects on the social and cultural changes that occurred in Australia during that period, such as the rise of the Labor Party, the conscription debate, the influenza epidemic, and the emergence of modernism. The book was first published in 1976 by Hutchinson of Australia and has 183 pages.
