Produktinformationen zu „The Messiah's Dream Machine (ePub)“
This sequel to Jennifer Friedman’s enchanting first memoir picks up where 'Queen of the Free State' leaves off: as the rebellious young teenager is packed off to boarding school in Cape Town. Told with humour and pathos, the theme of displacement – of the outsider – is explored further as we follow Jennifer’s journey into adulthood, becoming a wife and mother, living in Johannesburg and Israel, emigration, and leave-takings in Australia. Once again a strong sense of love, loyalty and place prevails, especially on her trips home to her beloved Free State. Expect stories about train journeys, windmills and floods, dead bodies on deck chairs, certifiably crazy home-help, babies, secrets and redemption, a Jewish British Bulldog and the Messiah’s favourite place.
Autoren-Porträt von Jennifer Friedman
Jennifer Friedman was born and raised in the Orange Free State in South Africa. She studied at the University of Cape Town, and her Afrikaans poetry has been published in various academic journals such as 'Tydskrif vir Letterkunde', 'Wetenskap en Kuns', 'Standpunte and Buurman', as well as 'Rooi Rose'. She emigrated with her husband and children in 1992 to Sydney, Australia, where she got her pilot’s licence. After her husband’s death in 1997, Friedman bought her own Grumman Tiger plane and she flies to the small outback towns and stations around Australia, often just for a lunch date and wherever the sun is shining. She now lives on the Central Coast of New South Wales with her partner.
