In June 1969 seven assisted migrants stepped out of the plane that had touched down in a strange place called Hobart. Jenny Williams was one of those adults. From that time on nothing of what they knew was of any use to them. Like newborns they had to learn to exist in a different world. Jenny's Coffee House takes the reader into the rich heart of a hard working family searching for their niche in life. Full of the drama (disappointment and triumph) of a life fully lived; this is an evocative and compelling work. Hobart shimmers and enchants, Europe is never far away, while Jenny welcomes us all like best friends into her world.
