Description: Peter Farrell is not the first person to discover he is illegitimate but few have been brave enough to provide such an illuminating account of the events which lead to the search for a parent. This rich and compelling memoir reveals a surprising personal history behind an apparently conventional life. Through Peter's mother, Marion, we are taken from an East End munitions factory in the First World War and a 1920s mental health institution to the bohemian free school movement, and learn what sacrifices a mother can make for her child. Peter's own life experiences are forged on a childhood of institutional living with little concept of normal family life. As a new immigrant sent to work on a remote prison farm in New Zealand, it takes Peter many years and encounters to finally understand what Maori mean by the word 'whanau'. The Lies That Settles is a powerful story of loss, love and survival spanning nine decades and two continents.
