Description
Teasing apart the many layers of memory, Fitzpatrick reveals a complex portrait of an Australian family against a Cold War backdrop. As her relationship with her father fades from girlhood adoration to adolescent scepticism, she flees Melbourne for Oxford to start a new life. But it’s not so easy to escape being her father’s daughter.
My Father’s Daughter is a vivid evocation of an Australian childhood; a personal memoir told with the piercing insight of a historian.
