About This Novel
After the literary epic "The Thorn Birds", Australian national treasure writer Colleen McCullough has created another epic masterpiece. For the sweetness in life, I am willing to embrace the price of every sweetness. Two pairs of twins, struggling between love and ideals, interpret four "anti-Jane Austen" stories. People in Clunda County have a question: What caused the two pairs of twins in Reverend Latimer's family to be born into completely different beauties and choose completely different lives? Ada is independent and courageous. Just her dream, far beyond the tiny county of Clondagh. Grace is a romantic by nature. She is waiting for someone who will appreciate the steam locomotive together and lead her into a comfortable and warm housewife life. Cao Hu is a sensible person. She would rather devote herself to medicine than to illusory love. As for the beautiful little sister Kitty, she longs for the day when her soul can be seen and appreciated before her skin. When the Great Depression struck Australia, the four sisters gradually tasted the sweetness and pain of each of their life choices.
