Oldies but goodies
Mar 7 2007, 1:41 PM EST
Green Dolphin Street by Elizabeth Goudge and Sara Dane by Catherine Gaskin have basically the same plot, young English woman goes to Australia as pioneer, but each author expands the plot deliciously. Nevil Shute's On The Beach is another downunder favorite. Scared the socks off me as a youngun. Do you find this valuable?

I forgot the Thorn Birds lady!! Colleen McCullough? Just re-read The Touch by her, and enjoyed it so much more this time. I'm going to redo The Thorn Birds now. It's waiting in the box under my bed. 1  out of 1 found this valuable. Do you?
