Art, Design & Photography Biography & Memoir
Drift Wood Escape and Survival Through Art is Eva De Jong Duldig’s moving memoir of how creativity carried her family from wartime Europe to a new life in Australia. Blending biography with art history, the book traces driftwood collected on Melbourne beaches back to the resilience that shaped her parents and, later, her own artistic voice.
This 2017 paperback is ideal for readers who enjoy true stories where art, family history and migration intersect. De Jong Duldig’s candid narrative will resonate with young adults and adults curious about post-war Australian culture and the power of making art under pressure.
The copy is in very good condition: crisp, unmarked pages, a tight binding and only light cover scuffs. A faint edge mark is noted, otherwise it presents cleanly with no writing, dog-ears or smoke odour.
