'This is the story of Joanna Lewison, whose mother died in giving her birth, whose father was never seen again, who was brought up by a rabelaisian, gin-soaking Granny in a New Zealand small town. Joanna's early life with this old reprobate was relieved only by glimpses of paradise when she stayed with an aunt and uncle in mountain country; for the rest, her sensitive, imaginative soul suffered torment.
