Dunera Lives: Profiles

Cu Carol Bunyan Autor Bill Gammage, Ken Inglis, Seumas Spark, Jay Winter
en Limba Engleză Paperback – 31 aug 2020
Injustice. Survival. Memory. These are the stories of civilians arrested, deported, and incarcerated in camps at Hay, Orange and Tatura during the Second World War. Over 2500 men came from Britain to Australia on the Dunera, disembarking in Melbourne and Sydney in September 1940. Over 250 men, women and children came from Singapore on the Queen Mary three weeks later. Volume 2 of Dunera Lives follows the paths of a selection of these people, from their early lives before and during the Nazi years, through their arrival in Britain or the Straits Settlements in search of a safe haven, to their arrest as enemy aliens and subsequent deportation and incarceration in camps in Australia. Then, as free men, they start new lives in many parts of the world. What they made of their freedom is striking. This book is a chronicle of injury, endurance, courage, and transcendence.

Recenzii

In the way it traces the lives of "Dunera boys" before, during and after internment, Dunera Lives: Profiles is narrative history in one of its most engaging and moving forms. -- Raimond Gaita
