The Boy in the Green Suit

A bittersweet tale of personal reminiscence, this life story follows a young boy who, after growing up in Victoria, travels across the Middle East and parts of South Asia. Disembarking in a green suit and carrying a suitcase full of books and a typewriter, the boy leaves with no money, no return ticket and, seemingly, no worries. What follows is an account of youth that is tender and funny as it unfolds around an innocent abroad. An unforgettable memoir, this telling captures the vulnerability and ardor of youth, and the fragility and strength of parental love.
