<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p><em>Bourke Street, My View from Here </em>follows the untold story of street community member Tony Brooks through a life journey that tells the personal truth of an ordinary life landed in extraordinary circumstances - and the perplexing personal choices that followed, and their dire consequences. Jen converses with the man people call 'The Mentor of Bourke Street' about tattoos, his past - drugs, gaol, family, release - and contemporary street life and its complex community. It is a tale of challenge, change and acceptance. Tony talks - about it all.</p><p>The reader is offered an analysis of another culture on our city streets, set in Melbourne . This could be any major town or city, anywhere in the world. Despite his struggles, Tony remains an uplifting charmer on Bourke Street to hundreds who know him, and a friendly stranger with a ready smile to those who don't.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br><p>'Everyday in our cities we walk past numberless stories without knowing it.
