Book excerpt: As a child Victor Kline was sexually, physically and emotionally abused by his mother. Despite this, or perhaps because of it, he went on to lead a diverse, exciting and often dangerous life. From medical guinea pig to Federal prosecutor to outback barrister. From provincial France to the highlands of New Guinea to dodging bullets in the Sri Lankan Civil War, The House at Anzac Paradeis his story, and the story of his healing. "A confronting, beautifully written book of searing honesty, it is at the same time a highly readable, uplifting story of how one can overcome adversity and thrive. This book documents an inherent truth: the best revenge is to live life well." Dr Michael Gliksman (Chair, Professional Issues Committee, Australian Medical Association, NSW, author ofSkink and Jewboy) "A life so packed with living. There is not a dormant moment in Victor Kline's life. Obstacles, cruelty, triumphs, unfathomable pain, A book so enthralling, it has a pulse of its own. Amazing and utterly inspiring." Jackie Loeb (Comedian, Writer and Entertainer, Los Angeles. Nominated for Best Comedy 2011 Hollywood Fringe Festival). "This book will restore your soul. It's a cathartic epic tale of an extraordinary personal pilgrimage, a journey through law, politics, writing, acting and faith. It shows that sexual abuse doesn't need to win. In our age that searches for healing, redemptive and empowering stories, don't miss this one. A remarkable, moving read." Reverend Dr Ross Clifford AM (President NSW Council of Churches, Principal Morling Theological College, author of Beyond Prediction, The Cross Is Not Enough, Riding the Rollercoaster) "Victor Kline has delivered an eloquent honest and highly personal story, the constant thread of which is his ongoing struggle to make meaning of the compounded traumas of his childhood. Yet Victor's story is ultimately one of hope and recovery, a rich journey, which despite the ultimate of betrayals is as courageous as it is inspiring." Dr Cathy Kezelman (President, ASCA - Adults Surviving Child Abuse, author of Innocence Revisited: A Tale in Parts)
