Sommario/riassunto |
|
A world in upheaval; two lives lived under stress ... This story is set in the social and political landscape of pre- and post-World War II. It tells two vastly different tales of Cecily and John's lives in Australia and overseas, as nations clashed, and governments and international organisations tried to remake the world. |
