Produktinformationen "Laveen"
This memoir is an intimate glimpse into the heart of a woman who faced life's trials with unwavering strength and grace, and offers a poignant glimpse into a bygone era in Brisbane. Laveen's remarkable journey begins in the early 1930s in Australia during the Depression years, with parts of her childhood spent living in tents along the railway lines. From learning to run a house at the tender age of twelve due to her mother's declining health, to the direct impact of World War II on her family life in the 1940s. Read about how Laveen and her husband Les found themselves, trapped with two small children on a remote Queensland property by relentless rains in the 1953 floods and their perilous 22-kilometre trek through floodwaters, battling mud, exhaustion and morning sickness. Feel the warmth of family gatherings, the joy of new grandchildren, and the spirit of a woman who held her family together through thick and thin. Laveen's story captures the essence of a life lived fully and courageously, woven with joy, sorrow, and strength.
