...PASSING THROUGH...
Here are the opening paragraphs of my memoir "...Passing Through..."
1. Humble Beginnings
There are eight million stories in the naked city — this has been one of them. Remember that? You wouldn’t unless you are of a certain age. They are the words of the voice-over at the end of each episode of the US television series Naked City, broadcast in the US from 1958 to 1959, again from 1960 to 1963. The version I would have seen would have been the latter, as Brisbane and the south-east corner of Queensland where I was brought up was not blessed (or cursed, as you wish) by television until 1959.
The point about that voice-over is that, as the then population of New York City was about eight million, each and every person was a story. Of course some stories are more exciting than others but there’s always something there, somewhere in each one of us.
This is mine. I hope it doesn’t bore the pants off you...
