Leesfragment
€10,20
It
was
1982
and
I
was
26
years
old,
endeavouring
to
adopt
a
child
from
a
Third
World
country. My
book
is
a
firsthand
account
of
being
one
of
a
small
number
of
forerunners
travelling
to
the
source,
contesting
authorities
and
being
labelled
a
’queue
jumper’.
I
embarked
on
this
journey
naively
unaware
of
my
so-called
crime. Due
to
a
political
agenda,
I
was
forced
to
remain
on
foreign
soil
for
my
act
of
compassion
and
desire.
Subject
to
a
circus
of
torment
and
bureaucracy,
set
against
a
backdrop
of
seedy
characters
[some
of
which
I
was
later
to
discover
were
on
Australia’s
Ten
Most
Wanted
List],
poor
desperate
characters,
and
kind
strangers.
It
was
a
journey
of
a
lifetime
to
which
I
came
home
with
a
beautiful
son
who
to
this
day
still
makes
me proud.
