Nine momentous days. An unforgettable novel of love and folly and heartbreak. It is 1939 and Australia is about to go to war. Deep in the working-class Melbourne suburb of Richmond it is business--your own and everyone else's--as usual. And young Kip Westaway, failed scholar and stablehand, is living the most important day of his life. Ambitious in scope and structure, triumphantly realised, this is a novel about one family and every family. It is about dreams and fights and sacrifices. And finally, of course, it is--as it must be--about love. Toni Jordan has a BSc in physiology and qualifications in marketing and professional writing. Her debut novel, "Addition," has been published in sixteen countries and won numerous awards. Jordan lives in Melbourne, Australia.
