'Growing up in Queensland amid alcoholism, poverty and domestic violence, Audrey Evans was told she would never be as good as white people. But after a lifetime of struggle, she was determined to prove everyone wrong, and at the age of 55 she attended university for the first time. There she would not just get a piece of paper but would change her life. Many Lifetimes is Audrey's extraordinary true story and a powerful reminder that it's never too late to change your life.' (Publisher's description)
