Produktbeschreibung

REMINISCENCE is a work of fiction based on the

generations of the McKenzie brothers who came to

Australia during the gold rush days of the 1850's. It is

related to the situation in a nursing home of one of their

descendants, 'the old man', Andrew McKenzie, and his

relationship with the nurses who attend him. It spans 160

years of Australia's history and the characters participate

in many of the major historical and social events that

occurred over that time.

'The old man' is a Western Queensland grazier, a genuine

old bushie who espouses conservative values and tries to

influence all about him to adopt them too. On the other hand,

controversial social issues such as the Stolen Generation,

Vietnam War and family relationships are handled with

sensitivity.

The trials and tribulations of successive generations of

McKenzies are detailed, family connections explored,

and romances developed. Above all, it is a love story, with

a piquant ending that brings the story to a heartwarming

close.
