Post-Bali

Memoirs of the adventures of an Australian teacher and writer in the 1960s. Frustrated by his rural Victorian life and his dysfunctional family, the 16 year old runs away, dressed in his green suit and full of lofty writing ambitions and dreams of acceptance. His travels take him to Istanbul, Tehran, Kuwait, Shiraz and Pakistan where he broadens his experience and finds personal fulfilment. His story is also placed in the context of his father's personal sadness and regret, which the writer appreciates more fully in retrospect. Author/Biographer's other works include 'A Life of Days' and 'The Deepest Part of the Lake'.Hillman, Robert is the author of 'Post-Bali' with ISBN 9780908011988 and ISBN 0908011989.
