Description:This first volume of Ruth Park’s autobiography is an account of her isolated childhood in the rainforests of New Zealand, her convent education which encouraged her love of words and writing, and the bitter years of the Depression. She then entered the rough-and-tumble world of journalism and began a reluctant correspondence with a young Australian writer. In 1942, Park moved to Sydney and married that writer, D’Arcy Niland. There she would write The Harp in the South, the first of her classic Australian novels. A Fence Around the Cuckoo is the story of one of Australia’s best storytellers and how she learnt her craft. ‘A splendid achievement.’ Sydney Morning Herald ‘Her words sparkle on every page, and her compassion and humour shine throughout the entire book.’ Age ‘One of the best pieces of autobiographical writing in many years...a joy to read.’ Courier Mail ‘An illuminating and entrancing vision of how one twig was bent to incline towards a lifetime of writing.’ Good WeekendWe have made it easy for you to find a PDF Ebooks without any digging.
