No One's Child

In No One's Child, Judith takes you on a haunting pilgrimage to her life 'along the railway tracks, ' with an intense and vivid portrait of Australian life in the 1950s. Maggot infested outside toilets. No electricity. Wandering Gypsies with horses, painted wagons and fearful reputations. Barely tolerated by her mother and disliked by her father, she still remained unrelenting as the provider and carer to her siblings. Through it all, there were hands that reached out, and the battered and bruised spirit of one little girl determined to forge her own destiny overcame the stigma and slur of "White trash" and "Railway brat" - overcame to walk her own walk. Judith was soon to become The Girl With The Cardboard Port, married to a Singaporean and migrating to the turbulent world of Singapore and Malaya in the 1960s, where she becomes embroiled in catastrophic events, and is driven to the point of considering the ultimate crime.
