    About this ebook

    In telling her story, Juliana, the heroine of Where Do You Come From?, has to dig deep to face the ghosts of her past while at the same time dealing with the everyday struggles of a woman's life. She is a feminist, a mother, a scholar and a witch whose story begins at a time when war and the threat of war shaped the world. Yet despite the ups and downs, she emerges triumphant as she approaches the end of a life that has been well lived.

    Nado Aveling

    Nado Aveling spent her working life juggling her role of mother to four children, with the demands of being an academic. With her children grown and retirement looming, she returned to writing poems and stories, a pastime that she had enjoyed as a child. Certainly, retirement afforded the creative space to think about the way women's lives unfold. Where Do You Come From? is the result.
