The Happiness Wars

Mehr zum Buch

What was it like to live in a time when abortion was totally illegal, and not only illegal but taboo? How does a sunny Aussie family living the zip-a-dee-doo-dah life in nineteen sixties Sydney deal with a prospect as radical as abortion, particularly when their snobbish, Nietzsche-reading, high IQ son falls in love with an underage country girl knocked up by her uncle? Happiness is a precious commodity and good people will do terrible things to preserve it.
