    • 1988
    • 1984

      Realisticky věrné zobrazení životních osudů hloubavého australského farmáře a jeho citově neuspokojené ženy uprostřed divokého australského buše, v němž tvrdě zápasí o existenci s přírodou a živly, i městského prostředí, do něhož za existencí a pohodlnějším životem míří jejich děti. Autor citlivě zachytil v románě složitost lidských vztahů a poměr člověka k prostředí přírodnímu i společenskému a rozporné síly, které je určují a ovládají. Z angl. přel. a doslovem opatřil Antonín Přidal.
