My father Reg Marks was a Japanese prisoner of war.

reveals is a response to his experiences building the Burma Railway.

setting out, coming home. 

walking through the corridor powers the train.

there are glimpses of my father’s life before and after his captivity, 

his wartime diary, messages from the family he left behind 

and the Japanese figures he carried home.

The texts are from his beloved mother Dobie and my mother Bina Korngold, a refugee from Vienna giving him news about their little daughter Gita.
