Kurzbeschreibung des Verlags

MILLBROOK TO MOSSMANA life shaped by Dreams, Desire, Disability & DivorceA Memoir by Jim FraserMillbrook to Mossman is a deeply personal memoir of love, reinvention, and the limits of resilience.Beginning in early1990s New Zealand, Jim Fraser leaves Auckland for the promise of success at the prestigious Millbrook Resort beneath the Southern Alps - only to discover that ambition alone cannot steady a life already veering off course. Across three marriages to remarkable, very different women, Fraser charts a path shaped as much by missteps and self-deception as by determination and hope.As careers rise and fall and relationships fracture, a far more formidable adversary emerges: a chronic, incurable medical condition that refuses to be outrun, no matter how far he travels - from the alpine landscapes of New Zealand to the tropical intensity of Far North Queensland.At once candid and reflective, Millbrook to Mossman explores what remains when the narratives we build about ourselves begin to collapse.It is a story spanning much of the globe - beginning in New Zealand, leading across Germany, Canada, the United States and Australia, confronting uncomfortable truths, learning the difference between being in love and choosing love, and ultimately finding a measure of peace not in escape, but in acceptance.For readers drawn to raw, unflinching memoirs of personal reckoning, love, loss and a battle that can't be won, Fraser's story offers both a cautionary tale and a hard-won sense of hope.
