Description
”David Kerr has unearthed an important story that is much bigger than one man’s life and has as much relevance today as it ever did. It is the story of the heart-ache of a refugee and post-war migrant, and of a son’s journeys to gain the love of his father, and how he wrestles with belonging to two places—the land of his birth, and the land of his ancestors.” William Verity. Finalist: Walkley Freelance Journalist of the Year 2015
