Peter Carey: His Illegal Self
from FaberBooks Hosted by FaberBooks
His Illegal Self is the story of Che - raised in isolated privilege by his New York grandmother, he is the precocious son of radical student activists at Harvard in the late sixties. Yearning for his famous outlaw parents, denied all access to television and the news, he takes hope from his long-haired, teenage neighbour who predicts: They will come for you, man. They’ll break you out of here ... Peter Carey, on a short visit from New York early in 2008, dropped in to tell us more about Australia and counterculture, and his story of the love between a young woman and a little boy on the run.
