Great story, lots of detail about life in Australia at the time (1907 to 1931 or thereabouts). The sort of story you want to keep reading to know what happens. Made me want to read more of Ruth Park (I've read some before but didn't really remember it), and also more about Australian history of the period. I didn't actually read this book, I listened to it on CD, which I think made it better. (

This was one of the most interesting stories I have ever read. I could really empathise with the main characters in the book and their struggle to be together. It was interesting enough to want to read every word and the description of place was great.
