'A true epic . . . It's easy to see why this stunning tale has been
called the Australian Gone With the Wind' Daily Mail 'One of the
biggest-selling, most widely read books in the history of fiction'
Observer In the rugged Australian Outback, three generations of
Clearys live through joy and sadness, bitter defeat and magnificent
triumph - driven by their dreams, sustained by remarkable strength
of character and torn by dark passions, violence and a scandalous
family legacy of forbidden love. It is a poignant love story, a
powerful epic of struggle and sacrifice, a celebration of
individuality and spirit. Most of all, it is the story of the
Clearys' only daughter, Meggie, who can never possess the man she
so desperately adores - Ralph de Bricassart. Ralph will rise from
parish priest to the inner circles of the Vatican ... but his
passion for Meggie will follow him all the days of his life. A
timeless epic romance - a battle between faith and the heart
