Gives heartwarming new meaning, with an Aussie accent. Reading about his early days in the convent school, could have almost been set in the US during that time. Easy to see Wally and The Beaver in situations like this (if they had been Australian and named Jackie, gone to Catholic School, and not been squeaky clean characters on the very American TV Show Leave it to Beaver). On second thought, it's perhaps more like Bill Bryson and his The Life and Times of the Thunderbolt Kid. Must admit I didn't cotton to the fact that the Jim in the title was the Dimitri/Jim in the beginning of the book. Ah well. I loved reading on the internets how Egoroff came knocking on Lunn's door after the publication of the book, saying, "Open the door Lunn, you Bastard Boy, so I can punish you for your sins." Ah, boyhood friendships. geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe
Hugh Lunn's wonderfully warm Cold War memoir has enthralled and entertained a whole generation of readers. His uniquely typical 1950s Australian family heads a east of unforgettable characters, as they wrestle love form original sin, and embark on many other thrilling over-the-top, under-the-shop adventures.
