Unknown Author

4.9/5 (13294 ratings)

Description:A Long Road From Geraldine is the story of a man who grew up in a small town in rural New Zealand in the 50’s and 60’s. The writer John Davies recalls details typical of the era of this tiny country, (at this time still vastly cut off from the rest of the world), where socialism ruled, religion was strong and children roamed free. It’s a tale about casting off bigotry, learning about sex and suffering from not enough dedication to career and ‘success’ which was what was expected in those days – especially with a private school education. At the age of twenty two the writer decides to leave New Zealand and spends the next five years largely on his own, bumming around the world with little money but a lot of nerve. This story of childhood and the not so straight forward path to adulthood is described with vivid intensity from the garden shed in Geraldine to the Fazendas of Brazil, an evocation of a time long past.We have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
