Autorenporträt
Cheryl Adam has travelled widely and lived overseas, including in Zambia, Kenya, South Africa, Norway, Jersey, England, and Sweden. She has been evicted, kidnapped, abandoned, made homeless, and discriminated against in her foreign adventures, and this helped develop her deep empathy for the plight of immigrant women. Cheryl returned to Australia after a seventeen-year absence. She became a student again at 46, completing three degrees in visual art. Her concern for marginalized women and the environment took her to the Philippines where she taught homeless women how to create useable art from plastic bags. Lillian's Eden is her first published novel.
