About the Book

The story of John Fawcett is one of triumph of determination in the face of impossible odds. As the Javanese say, like getting water from the moon. Near-death experiences are often the catalyst to re-examine and revitalise a life, but rarely are the results of such an experience so spectacular as in the case of John Fawcett.

Successful ceramicist, art school head and family man, he lived life at a frenetic pace until treatment for chronic back pain took him to the brink of death. He lost his wife, his career, his health and his vision for the future. Rebuilding his life took him to another country, a new family and a new vocation — bringing sight to the cataract blind of Bali.
