Über dieses E-Book
<p>And so begins an extraordinary memoir by outstanding
new talent <b>P.J. Parker</b>. Spanning three generations, <i>The Long Goodbye</i> takes us deep into the lives of an Australian family as
they survive record-breaking floods, outlast epic droughts and
face the unforgiving realities of life on the land.</p>
<p>This remarkable true story of grit and resilience depicts a
family at their zenith, set against the spectacular backdrop of
rural Queensland where life and death are never far apart.But not even the harshness of the Australian landscape
can prepare them for what is to come.</p>
<p>Written with astounding lyricism, warmth and humour,
<i>The Long Goodbye</i> is a deeply moving memoir about the
unbreakable bonds of marriage, love and family. And it poses
the most heartbreaking moral dilemma of all: when a
loved one is suffering, is euthanasia the answer?</p>
<p>‘How far does our duty to love go? A devastating
and beautiful memoir about a family and the painful
tangle of life, loss and love. Funny, very Australian, and
shot through with human truths: this is writing
that is fresh, arresting and original.’
SUSAN JOHNSON</p>
<p>‘Powerful… extremely moving… totally heart-rending.’
