Book Description
Secondhand. Very good condition. Minor wear to book edges and corners. Minor marks on tail foredge.
From Sarah to Sara is a story of conflict and struggle experienced by two young women, women from quite different lifetimes. Though their circumstances are vastly different, they had both been uprooted from their home countries in England and 'transported' to a strange and unfamiliar life in the Antipodes.
Both women, in dealing with their lives within the social conditions of their time, find solace and inspiration through a journal - one by writing it, one by reading it.
This remarkable Australian novel is their story. This book is also an Alan Marshall Award Winner. The exploits of the convict Sarah are based on documented evidence, making this a truly classical novel. (back cover)
