Product Description
by Monika Killeen (Author)
Exploring what it means to "come home", the importance of memories. and the question of belonging, including discovering one's own way of becoming a pakeha as a newly migrated New Zealand woman.
From Error to Error is a literary and psychological part-memoir. It follows a young woman on her journey of errors, as she leaves her troubled tribe of Eastern European heritage and sets about finding a new one, leaving her country and her past behind.
Familiar and collaborating yet not driven by confession-mindedness or self-justification. The story explores female and male relationships at cultural intersections previously unimaginable to the protagonist. It opens an intimate window to one difficult father-daughter relationship. It is a love story and a story of friendships, their value, and their cost. A discourse on a life lived on the edge of reason, undistorted by idealised or catastrophised memories. Deeply disinterested in moral judgments or decorative literary flourishes, it tells how, From Error to Error, one discovers the entire truth.
