Behind You, Dad - Maxwell Mkoki

Summary:

Maxwell wanted his two-year-old son to have a better life. But without hope in his native country in Africa, he set out to explore the world in search of greener pastures. That exploration led the family to emigrate to New Zealand.

The son is now twenty and the family is split, but one afternoon the father and son find themselves in deep conversation when the son asks to hear the story of how they came to be in this new land.

In Behind You, Dad, Maxwell unpacks his 'bindle sack' of memories, revealing hard-won true-life experience and knowledge about living as an immigrant, and practical wisdom passed on from father to son about what it takes to get ahead - no matter what circumstances come our way.

A Rampart Book.
