Synopsis

At the age of twenty-two, Noreen Reeves and her husband left the safety and security of in-country Victoria, Australia and embarked on an adventure to the isolation of a Papua New Guinea outstation.Twelve years later and armed with an extraordinary collection of memories, they relocated to a vast sheep station in outback Western Australia. Noreen’s first memoir Two Shakes of a Dead Lamb’s Tail detailed those adventures and now she adds to her recollections, introducing on the journey a number of short fictional stories that season this memoir with humour, pathos and drama. From medical emergencies in Vancouver, to whale watching in Antarctica, via the excruciating pain of losing her best friend to cancer, Noreen Reeves details a life spent moving forward and one that, in her retirement, she can reflect best on by Looking Through the Rear Window.

A propos du livre

À propos de l'auteur

Noreen Reeves grew up in Melbourne, Australia. After marrying in 1968, she and her husband lived in country Victoria, before embarking for Bougainville Island, Papua New Guinea where they lived on an isolated outstation. While her husband worked as a teacher, Noreen occupied her time with raising three children and helping out where she could with the Vocational Centre. On returning to Australia in 1973, the family lived in East Gippsland, Victoria, farming sheep and cattle before buying a 101,250 hectare sheep station in outback Western Australia. In her career, Noreen has also worked as an administrator for various companies, including accountants, solicitors, a firm of German engineers and, by far her favourite, the Wine Industry Association of WA. In 2016, she retired and was finally able to give time and attention to her lifelong passion; writing. Having published her memoir, "Two Shakes of a Dead Lamb's Tail" in 2013, she is now enjoying retirement, and is devoting more and more of her time to writing, Noreen is now looking forward to beginning work on a fiction novel.
