Journal Entry 1 by wingcrimson-tidewing from Balingup, Western Australia Australia on Monday, December 22, 2003
Winner of the Miles Franklin Award 1977, this is a very touching yet powerful book.
Set in Australia in the years 1907 to 1931 and spanning World War 1 and the Great Depression, it follows the lives of two childhood friends; Jackie, who is a dwarf whose mother keeps the grocery shop, and Cushie, a beautiful youg girl whose parents are upper-class snobs.
A tale of love, loyalty, hardship, endurance, and the indestructibility of the human spirit.
