Beskrivelse
A Far-flung Life is a powerful historical family saga set in the vast Australian outback. It explores love, loss, and resilience through the story of the MacBride family, whose lives are forever changed by tragedy.
An epic tale of family bonds, sacrifice, and the enduring strength of love in remote Western Australia.
From the award-winning, multi-million-copy bestselling author of The Light Between Oceans comes this long-awaited novel. Set in 1958 on Meredith Downs, a sprawling sheep station in Western Australia, the MacBrides have called this harsh, untamed land home for generations. With weather as unpredictable as a wild god and time moving at its own pace, life here is anything but ordinary.
One fateful day, patriarch Phil MacBride swerves to avoid a kangaroo on a lonely road beneath the endless blue sky, and in an instant, the entire family’s world is shattered. Fate deals them another cruel blow, leading to heartbreaking losses and sacrifices, including one life lost and another given up to protect an innocent child.
Youngest MacBride, Matt, embarks on a deeply emotional and moral journey with no clear guide, forced to navigate the difficult choices between love and duty, sacrifice and happiness. This sweeping novel delves into themes of family, belonging, compassion, and hope, portraying people striving to find shelter amid life’s storms.
A Far-flung Life is a magnificent testament to the power of love and resilience, praised by authors like Florence Knapp, Bonnie Garmus, and Rachel Joyce for its heart-wrenching beauty and bold storytelling.
