Colleen McCullough’s brand-new, romantic Australian unique about 4 extraordinary sisters taking their locations in life during the turbulent years after World War I is “simply as impressive as her ultra-romantic classic, The Thorn Birds” (Marie Claire). Since they are 2 sets of twins, the 4 Latimer sisters are as close as can be. Each of these active young women has her own dream for herself: Edda desires to be a doctor, Grace desires to wed, Tufts desires never to wed, and Cat wishes to be known for something other than her beauty. They are famous throughout New South Wales for their appeal, wit, and aspiration, however as they step into womanhood at the beginning of the twentieth century, life holds restricted prospects for them. Together they choose to enlist in a training program for nurses– a brand-new choice for females of their time. As the Latimer siblings end up being immersed in medical facility life and the needs of their training, each should make weighty choices about love, career, and what she values most. The outcomes are often happy, sometimes heartbreaking, however always … bittersweet. Set versus the background of a young and mainly untamed nation, “filled with humor, insight, and fascinating historic information, McCullough’s newest is a sensible and warm tribute to family, female empowerment, and her native land” (Individuals).
