Born
into the sweat and drudgery of a New South Wales sheep farm at the end
of the 19th century, Dolly Maunder is different to her siblings. She
will not endure the small, servile existence of a wife. Dolly, bright,
ambitious and stubborn, dreams of a different fate, of building
something that she truly owns.

She will do whatever it takes to
be the woman she deserves to be. Even with a husband and children, Dolly
pushes the boundaries of what is ‘proper’ and what a wife and mother
ought to do, as war spreads across Europe and the rules are forever
changed. But every life has its limits. What happens when Dolly’s
wanderlust finally risks taking her too far?
