Description
Ged has lived three lives, each of them quite different from the other two.
In Life One he finds himself growing up in the tough back-to-backs area of Birmingham, forming friendships that will last throughout his three lifetimes, going to Germany with the occupation forces, working at a number of semi-skilled jobs, always with a view to bettering himself, until finally he sets out with a mate, bound for Australia.
Life Two sees him courting his future wife, getting married, building a home with his own hands, raising four children, and wholeheartedly embracing the family life of a working class man.
When Life Two ends abruptly and unexpectedly, Ged starts anew with a new partner, throwing himself into energetic pursuits, travelling widely, and participating in activities aimed at helping his fellows or the broader community in which he lives. Meanwhile, his four children have provided grandchildren and great-grandchildren to concern himself with.
This is a story similar to any number of tens of thousands of such stories of migrants who have travelled to Australia to make it their home, while still retaining a love of their homeland. It is, therefore, a remarkable story.
