ABOUT
Author Barbara Anderson's second novel.
New Zealand in the 1950s is a place where men do work and women have babies. Sarah Tandy is a young wife and mother, and also a painter-while her husband Jack is a struggling, and eventually highly acclaimed, novelist.
This novel follows Sarah's determined and successful efforts to keep her talent alive and growing, in the meantime contending with two daughters and her amiably selfish and philandering husband. The plot spans a period of forty years. The scene ranges widely within New Zealand itself, and in Europe and the United Kingdom, where Jack and Sarah make a highly entertaining expedition in search of cultural adventure.
