Epic sweeping tale of three generations of a family.  Heartbreaking, lonely, and filled with self doubt.  Yet, I still enjoyed this book, wanted to know what happens next. Reminds me of Outlander as it's very much about a specific place and time. I feel like I've been to NSW now.  Was this billed as a romance? Because it's only about 5% romance, and even then mostly broken hearts romance.
