Beautifully written.

With great powers of observation Judy King takes one on a tough but worthwhile journey peppered with humour. Her strong descriptive writing paints beautiful, often familiar pictures of the NSW countryside and the city of Sydney. Agnes' strong character enables her to overcome the many, sometimes horrific and unthinkable obstacles and occurrences in her life. I have recommended this book to my book club without hesitation, knowing it will generate lively discussion on many topics.
