Germaine Greer tells the story of her search for a patch of her native Australia to heal.

Germaine Greer tells of her quest to find a piece of her native Australia to heal:  finding the right patch of land. From 2014.

Germaine Greer is in search of 'heart's ease'. She longs to find a patch of her native Australia to make good, to restore after years of misguided exploitation. And she has just the person to help her with her project - her sister who is 'a properly trained Australian botanist'. But finding the right patch of land turns out to be far more difficult than she ever imagined.
