Members Reviews:
Epic Australian historical fiction!
Edwina Baker and her younger brother Aiden were working the farm together, although it was a rare occurrence. Edwina was sick of hanging around the farmhouse; she needed to be busy and applying her thoughts to their land, as well as acting on them was what she wanted to do. But her father Hamilton was a strict and ruthless man, moreso since his wife and childrenâs mother had passed away. He refused to let Edwina leave the farm unless accompanied â he also refused to listen to her ideas at improving their land. She was intensely frustrated as well as horrified that Aiden appeared to agree with their father.
Therefore when the circus was in town, Edwina defied her father and, dressed as a boy, rode her horse to see the event. But it was while she was in attendance that she met the two men who would feature in her future in a big way. While she needed to hide her visit to town from her father, she feared what would happen should he find outâ
As Edwina continued to put her ideas to her father, Hamilton was having troubles of his own. His anger and displeasure at his daughter continued to irritate â but it was what was happening in his background which was building the resentment in his heart. What would happen in the familyâs future? Would Edwina be able to prove her ability and worth? She could only tryâ
An Uncommon Woman by Aussie author Nicole Alexander is another epic historical fiction novel which I thoroughly enjoyed. Set in 1929 and into the 1930s in the dusty, drought stricken land of Western Queensland, the vivid descriptions of the land, the prickly pear and the rivalries between property owners is all too real. With Aboriginal stockmen, men searching for work that just wasnât available, the harsh living on the land â all combined to make this another winner for this author. I have no hesitation in recommending An Uncommon Woman highly.
