HOW TO BUILD A HOUSE IN THE MOUNTAINS
He survived a covert dirty tricks campaign against him from the security police that destroyed his music career. He survived the drug addiction and disaffection that followed. He survived a decade and a half as a TV cameraman in the wars of Africa and Eastern Europe. Roger Lucey then knew that he needed to go further to find peace of mind. With no previous experience he set out to build a house in the mountains of the Breede River Valley with a vague idea that this might lead to healing. This is the story of that house in the changing South Africa and the path that led Lucey from the darkness of his past into the light and back to his music.

How To Build A House In The Mountains is a memoir published by Karavan Press as well as a live, solo show featuring stories from the book and songs inspired by the journey.
