Against the stark and unyielding beauty of the Australian farmlands, Elizabeth Jolley paints a rich portrait of an eccentric, affectionate relationship between two women. Hester Harper, a lonely spinster caring for her ailing father, takes on Katherine, a young orphan, as a companion. Together, the women build a life replete with the satisfaction of daily chores well done and small pleasure thoroughly enjoyed.
