About this audiobook
Paper Sparrow is historical fiction inspired by real-life events in Australia from 1943 to 1955. Peggy is born to circumstances that deny her opportunities afforded to others. Before her thirteenth birthday, she has no choice but to work as a Nursing Aide in a home for the elderly. Aged fourteen, she is drugged and raped. Without family and financial support, she travels from Sydney to Melbourne to work throughout her pregnancy. On her way to a hostel for single pregnant females, she meets Peter, a man of the cloth, and later, Bineham, a Master of Chinese psychology, Una, a student of ancient wisdom and Lily. Individually and collectively they foster her potential bringing lightness and wonder to a dark journey that reveals a massive, institutional baby farming industry. Paper Sparrow champions symbolic rebirth and the power of self-belief. Ultimately an inspiring piece.

Magda Palmer is an artist, author, and poet. She rarely exhibits her artwork, preferring to enjoy it personally as it helps her understand the wonders of our planet, the universe, its influence on all living things, and her place in the world. Magda's art and writing often contain subliminal messages of social injustice, animals' innocence, and romance. Magda is determined to promote Beauty, Knowledge, Decency, Honour, and the pursuit of excellence in all that she does. Her code of conduct is to live without malice, devoid of greed and gluttony. She does not eat or use animal-derived food and products nor wear animal-derived clothing. Magda is against all animal experimentation and animal to human organ transfers. She passionately believes humanity can gain planetary harmony through personal example and a rich source of truthful, well-documented multimedia. Magda's Tao is to care for all creatures; her passions are minerals and the performing arts, and her devotion is to her immediate and extended family. Does she want financial gain? Of course, it would enable Magda to tread her path comfortably and help innocent victims of man and nature practically. She wishes to help effectuate an enlightened planetary civilization deserving of the creation of which we are an integral part.
