UNSUNG ORDINARY MEN by Sally Dingo is a very personal investigation into the ongoing effects of war on the soldiers, their wives and children when a soldier came home
. UNSUNG ORDINARY MEN was inspired by Sally s own experiences when her father returned from World War II. Sally’s father died when she was 12 years old. Through the pages of this book Sally Dingo will give a voice to the sorrow she and many others still feel, for they were not aware of what their fathers and brothers and husbands (as well as the brave women who were POW nurses) had to go through.
She will also tell the story of those forgotten, quiet men.
"What I am trying to pen is, in the end after all the heartache of the war really a love letter to a generation. For they were incredible, and inspiring, and we the children did not understand for so long. And soon they will be gone, and we have not said thank you. They sacrificed then watched as we took all the spoils, in the decades that followed."
