Description

Love leads to the hell of a Bali jail ... Emotional undercurrents light up a darkened cinema ... A married woman finds thorns in the roses of an illicit liaison.

A collection of twenty diverse and compelling tales of life, where Western experience is woven through with Eastern wisdom. From Australia to India, London to Bali, these are stories about loving and leaving, growing older, losing and finding.

Through private musings, stories of family and vignettes that illuminate people and place, the reader is offered a fascinating and moving glimpse into other lives. Above all there's a sense of searching and wanderlust, for no matter how old we grow, how deep our relationships or how intense our love, we still seek to understand why we feel the way we do.

C V Williams has previously published life story, including biographies of the renowned philosopher, Jiddu Krishnamurti, and the novelist, Christina Stead.
