Meggie Cleary grows up on a farm in Drogheda, Australia, torn between family, love and fate. Central to her forbidden love is the charismatic priest Ralph de Bricassart.
The three novels in this book are connected by love as a source of guilt, pain, and new hope: heroines and heroes face difficult choices, confessions, losses, and the search for the possibility of a new beginning.
The three novels depict ordinary people in pivotal moments: a failed writer, fate on the wet streets of a big city, and characters torn between dreams, love, guilt, and reality.
In a whirlwind of passion, danger, and the distant expanses of the steppes, the heroes face a love that changes fate, but also temptations that demand courage, loyalty, and sacrifice.
The novel Another's Wife follows a young painter who returns to the province, where he experiences a love affair with another man's wife, but also disappointment, alienation, and conflict with his petty-bourgeois environment.
