Hi Amanda it was a good time for us all to start a project. It is the early life of a young woman who has been brought up with an unhappy, angry mother who takes it out on an ever appeasing father. Her mother though encourages love of reading and films but imaginary world falls short . when young woman loses her once beloved boyfriend to her best friend and then tragically to a road accident. A chance to live together in a flat up Sunshine road with the new smart guy she is dating is turned down by him and divorce of her parents, death of friends and disappointments,turns her inward to create art.When the right man turns up she is no longer able to commit to love. Episodes of prose poetry reflect a timeline and her journey and escape through art. Voices of other characters give their story of the sometimes tumoltuos 1970s and 1980s.The journey into "another country finds light and celebration at the end of the tunnel.
