With My Heart On My Sleeve - The
Weroona Life Stories Project
Published by LUCAN Care, Leichardt NSW 2001
This book is a delightful, touching and sometimes humorous collection
of oral histories of the residents of Weroona Nursing Home in
Sydney's inner west. Most of the stories are about women; loving,
gentle, feisty, adventurous, rebellious women. Women who have
loved and been loved. The same could be said of the one story
about a male resident.
The stories, each valuable in its own right, take the reader
behind the visual images of ageing, into the residents' internal
world - a rich tapestry of memories which span a century. Lovingly
recorded, beautifully produced and illustrated, I would recommend
this book to sensitive people of all ages.
