An Unusual Family Memoir
Desirelines is an extraordinary shared autobiography that begins with two brothers growing up above their parents' chemist shop in the western suburbs of Sydney in the 1950s. In this rich and episodic memoir, Peter and Richard Wherrett trace the complex and painful territory of a family life overshadowed by terrible secrets. It is a powerful story of survival and of how their childhood legacy set them on very different paths, losing each other for many years. A remarkable story of honest, thoughtfulness and a desire to make sense of their pasts, 'Desirelines' is a surprising and moving book, written by two sensitive and dynamic men.
