Author Susan McCabe knew it was a story that had to be told when she met Des Woodford at his home in Perth Australia, where she and her family had moved from Canada. The story takes the reader with the young Des on his journey of adventure, pain, suffering, heroism and survival. This book not only tells the dramatic tale of what happened, it reveals the inner journey of the soul of the child, and leaves us breathless with admiration at his strength and depth of character. Des lives for us, as do his parents Rosy and Sonny, who share his ordeal, though they are all ripped apart before being brought back together. There are camp heroes like the Dutch Barfing brothers, the irrepressible Aussie jockeys who take on the brutal prison guards, and Des’s pet chicks Bluey and Koefer. All of them – even the pet birds – become three-dimensional, living breathing personalities who engage our feelings.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eCondition:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ein good condition; covers are showing minor signs of wear; no rips, tears or marks – see photos for condition\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"clearfix\"\u003e \u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"bar\"\u003eShipping\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eShipping cost:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003efree shipping\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e\u003cstrong\u003eDelivery time:\u003c\/strong\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eup to 5 working days\u003c\/i\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"bar\"\u003ePayment\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eWe accept the following payment methods:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePaypal\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\n\u003cp\u003ePlease contact us if you have any questions.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003cdiv class=\"section\"\u003e\n\u003ch3 class=\"bar\"\u003eService\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\u003cp\u003e \u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e\n\u003c\/div\u003e","brand":"Eselbe Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45052889989259,"sku":"12845 B2\/SP SS","price":18.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0721\/0559\/0923\/files\/57_20931a2e-efda-408b-b8d7-b8bb22db56bb.jpg?v=1767154270","url":"https:\/\/eselbebooks.com\/products\/waiting-for-the-durian-a-childs-life-as-a-prisoner-of-war-by-susan-j-mccabe","provider":"Eselbe Books","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
