Dornenvögel

Dornenvögel

Colleen McCullough

Meggie Cleary odrasta na australskoj farmi Drogheda, rastrgana između obitelji, ljubavi i sudbine. Središnja je njezina zabranjena ljubav prema karizmatičnom svećeniku Ralphu de Bricassartu.

Dornenvögel (Ptice umiru pjevajući) Colleen McCullough obiteljska je saga i ljubavni roman smješten u surovi, prostrani krajolik Australije. U središtu priče nalazi se Meggie Cleary, jedina kći u brojnoj, siromašnoj obitelji koja dolazi na veliko imanje Drogheda, gdje odrasta od djevojčice do žene obilježene dubokim čežnjama, gubicima i neostvarenim snovima.

Roman prati više naraštaja obitelji Cleary, ali njegov emocionalni vrhunac čini odnos između Meggie i katoličkog svećenika Ralpha de Bricassarta. Ralph je ambiciozan, privlačan i razapet između duhovnog poziva, osobnih želja i težnje za crkvenim usponom. Njihova je ljubav snažna, ali unaprijed osuđena - ne samo zbog crkvenih zavjeta nego i zbog društvenih očekivanja, ponosa i izbora koje oboje donose.

Uz ljubavnu priču, roman prikazuje težak život na australskoj zemlji: suše, požare, osamljenost, obiteljske napetosti i cijenu opstanka. McCullough spaja intimnu dramu s epskim pripovijedanjem, istražujući teme zabranjene ljubavi, žrtve, vjere, moći i sudbine. Dornenvögel je priča o ljudima koji silno žele ljubav i ispunjenje, ali ih vlastite odluke i okolnosti vode prema boli, gubitku i trajnoj čežnji.
