OverviewWhat would you do if you found a baby in a box? If you found yourself dining with a prince? Or cornered in a riot in revolutionary Iran? This collection of tales celebrates a life lived bravely-across six continents, yet with a profound sense of place and home. As a flight attendant on international routes during the 1970s and 1980s, the author's travels took her around the world. In later years, a role in local government in Australia's glittering city of Sydney saw her devote her care and attention to people in need. Marcelle Hoff has encountered heads of governments and the world's most vulnerable, and she chronicles their lives-and the way they touched hers-with dignity and gentle remembrance. Echoes of Others is a memoir that pays tribute to humanity's enduring strength and its foibles. From riots to HIV/AID, from Blackfellas to whitefellas, from leaders to legends, this book celebrates mothers and fathers, found-family and home, rats, cats, war, peace and characters both vivid and endearing.
