When it's finally over, he takes his family away to a new life on a banana farm in Queensland. His children, Dot and Robert, grow doubtful and uneasy over their magnificent but foreign father who is so different from everyone else, but finally come to see him clearly. Seen through the eyes of young Robert, this is an autobiographical narrative which reflects the author's childhood. (Libraries Australia)
