Carol. Volume 1: Emergent; by N.P. Maino is a light easy read filled with ’70’s nostalgia and set in one of Australia’s most iconic beachside towns. Who hasn’t been to Coffs Harbour on the mid-north coast of NSW?
Carol defies the norm for a young teenager emerging into adulthood in a time when women were struggling for equality.
Following the tragic death of her parents Carol is in turmoil over the conditions of their Will.
Leaving the family banana plantation behind she heads to Sydney University and life “in the city”.
The writer fills the book with descriptive vernacular evoking memories of yesteryear. Anyone who has lived or visited Coffs will be drawn into the storyline.
Looking forward to Carol: Volume 2.
