Bøker av Barbera Moret

In 1957 BARBERA MORET left a Europe that was still recovering from the devastation of World War II. Her native Holland had experienced five years of Nazi occupation and a decade of post-war rebuilding. She moved to Australia - far distant from the upheavals of military conflict and the Cold War. Here she established a new life and a safe haven for her growing family. But the impact of cataclysmic events is inevitably profound, and in Barbera's case, repercussions from her war experiences lingered long after her arrival. The history of post-war immigration from Europe to Australia is full of tales of trauma and heart-ache, of optimism and achievement. Barbera's life is typical, and THE LURE OF THE HORIZON is her story.
