The Boarding House

It is 1966. A 17 year old English migrant arrives in Australia seeking a new life.   His passage has been smoothed by Australian authorities he is a 10 pound migrant. He finds lodgings in a Sydney boarding house close to the centre of the city. The House is full of boys like him. Some are migrants from all over the world while others are Australian drawn to the ‘big smoke’ for work and experience.

“Anyone who can remember growing up in the suburbs during the sixties will enjoy this book.
I found the book to be quite moving. It could provide a basis for an interesting comparative examination of the more sophisticated attitudes and experiences of contemporary youth.”
