Always Off Centre

This is a tale of wild adventure - of Irish ancestors, of the life of a damaged WWI veteran and of the exploits of a country girl seeking escape and experiences.  Lynn tells the story of where she came from and how she got to where she ended up.  She discloses some of her own secrets and the Big Family Secret of an event two generations ago, an event so tragic and damaging that it left indelible scars on those involved and impacted subsequent generations, Lynn’s included.


Lynn was fortunate to have been around during the tumultuous decades of the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s and to have lived to tell the tale.  These were the decades of the profound cultural and technological revolutions that changed everything about how we live our contemporary lives.  For years she lived in self-exile, a life of travel, change, reinvention and of metamorphoses.  She tells of her two marriages and of the revelation during the second that changed her world.  She tells these stories so that her children can know the life experiences that made her who she is - inside and outside of parenthood.  It may be a lesson for all children - your parents may be more than you think they are!
