The incredible, long-awaited new novel from the award-winning, multi-million copy bestselling author of
The Light Between Oceans.
A sweeping historical family saga set against the rugged Australian outback, A Far-flung Life is an epic novel of love, loss and resilience, following a family shattered by tragedy and bound by the secrets they shield in order to live.
Outback Western Australia, 1958.
For generations, the MacBrides have lived on a remote sheep station, Meredith Downs. A million arid acres, it’s an ocean of land, where the weather is a capricious god, and time still roams untamed.
One ordinary day, on a lonely road, under the unending blue sky, patriarch Phil MacBride swerves to avoid a kangaroo. In seconds the lives of the entire MacBride family are shattered. Instead of leaving wounds to heal, Fate comes for them yet again, in a twist of consequences that will cause one of them to lose their life, and another to sacrifice theirs for the sake of an innocent child. Matt, the youngest MacBride, is plunged into a moral and emotional journey for which there is no map, no guide, as he is forced to choose between love and duty, sacrifice and happiness.
A sweeping novel of family and belonging, of compassion and hope, A Far-flung Life is the epic novel about people trying to do their best, each seeking shelter from the storm of life - and a powerful testament to the enduring strength of love.
Heart-wrenching and beautifully set. A gorgeous feast of a novel about family, community, love and the lengths we will go to save them all. -
