Buch Details
The international bestselling author of The Secret River and A Room Made of Leaves returns with a fictionalised account of her grandmother’s life, commemorating a strong female character making the best out of the times and society she was born in. Dolly Maunder is born at the end of the nineteenth century,when society’s long-locked doors are just starting to creak ajar for determined women. Growing up in a poor farming family in rural New South Wales, Dolly spends her life doggedly pushing at those doors. A husband and two children donot deter her from searching for love and independence. Restless Dolly Maunder is a subversive, triumphant tale of apioneering woman working her way through a world of limits and obstacles, who is able – despite the cost – to make a life she could call her own.
