This lyrical, award-winning novel, by a native of Tasmania, tells the story of a pregnant woman who revisits her painful past when she returns to her childhood home of Tasmania. As told by Tasmania's famous author Flanagan through a number of flashbacks, it is a powerful story of blue-collar Slovenian immigrants in the mid 20th century and a woman confronting her abusive father.
