Tsiolkas has written
a masterpiece of

transformation: a
historical novel of
immense power and an
unflinching dissection
of doubt and faith, tyranny and revolution, and
cruelty and sacrifice.
Favel Parrett's deep
emotional insight and
literary talent shine
through in this love letter
to the strong women
who bind families
together, despite dislocation and distance.
Because there is still love. No matter what.

at times funny, with
the narrative pull of

imagination. Catherine

desire for community and connection.
