The Eighties were an era of change: mandatory retirement, family celebrations, and global travel. From a long-established law practice in Australia, this memoir chronicles one man's "flexible secession" from work, his unexpected legal battle against a negligence suit, and his intellectual life as a Hungarian emigrant. Hear the reflections of a constitutional lawyer and anti-communist on the rise of the glasnost era, the complex politics of the Hungarian diaspora, and the joys and challenges of building a purposeful life far from home.
