Indigenous Chapter Eleven

As I wrote this piece, I remember thinking the chapter was somewhat confusing. If neither the Company nor Neuman-Life wanted George to succeed, then who did? I didn’t know. Also, why was the Company’s representative at the meeting? And what was this bombshell about George’s mum and brother’s accident not being accidental at all!

Indigenous Chapter Ten

Today, I picked up the book and decided to blog about the next chapter: OneWorld. I was pleasantly surprised after reading it. Congratulations to me. Oh yes, there are probably errors and areas that could be developed or corrected, but there always are. The opening section is all about George’s dad, Michael.
