Barry White

Barry White is one of AIA Publishing’s memoir writers. He wrote The Ratcatcher’s Grandson, the story of his world travels in the 1960s.

‘This story takes place when the author is a young man, and he sets out on an incredible journey backpacking around the world. As a reader you are completely caught up in the gripping, amusing and sometimes racy narrative as he reflects on his experiences and encounters. Australian prose and vernacular, the stereotypical representation of the main character, the refreshingly honest insights into his dilemmas, naivety, guilelessness and his innocent determination to succeed, makes this an entertaining, interesting and poignant read.’

Lady Joyce Hunt.

A third-generation Australian, born in 1937 in Redfern, Sydney, he served an apprenticeship as a plumber, then following his return to Australia in 1963, he worked as a sales manager in hardware, refractories, and then as a teacher with TAFE.   

His life now involves writing, metal sculpture, painting, drawing, and living influenced by Zen Buddhism and contemporary philosophy. He resides on the NSW South Coast at ‘Stone Cottage’, Jamberoo.

The Ratcatcher’s Grandson: Barry White

The Ratcatcher’s Grandson could be considered Puberty Blues’ older uncle. Barry, our narrator, gives the reader a remarkable insight into the psyche of two young larrikins embarking on an overseas adventure of a life time. Written in the sixties Aussie vernacular, The Ratcatcher’s Grandson is real, engaging and eye opening at times. A great walk down memory lane for many fellow travellers who set off from down under to explore the world.’
