Welcome to my Memoir Reflections website. Here you will find posts on the memoir I’m currently writing about growing up in the then working class suburb of Fitzroy during the 1950s and 1960s.

FEEDBACK FROM A BETA READER OF MY SOON TO BE PUBLISHED MEMOIR

A cracking read from beginning to end. Chris brings forth the sounds and smells of Fitzroy and the surrounding suburbs, transporting us back to another era of Australian migrant history.

Fitzroy

Fitzroy is Melbourne’s first suburb, and is located in Australia.

‘By the 1930’s Melbournians regarded Fitzroy as slum territory, the haunt of criminals and prostitutes and with the highest levels of infant mortality in Victoria.’

‘In the 1950s the State Government drew up plans for slum clearance. Large tracts of streets and housing were replaced by multi-storey tower blocks of apartments.’
