Behind the Lines

Author: Ian Patrick

Narrator: Ian Patrick

Unabridged: 1 hr 59 min

Format: Digital Audiobook

Publisher: Findaway Voices

Published: 11/08/2017

Genre: Fiction - Coming Of Age

Synopsis

These eight short stories are works of fiction, but reflect the author's real personal experiences while undergoing compulsory military training during his youth in apartheid South Africa. The stories are all based on real events but the characters are the products of creative imagination (although rooted in reality). Readers will enjoy a range of humour and unusual incidents - frequently hilarious - along with perceptive insights into the trials and tribulations faced by a young man seeking an identity in a confusing world of military discipline and rigid conformity.
