#previewbook #septrso2023 #digitalarc #historical #migrantexperience Two children trying to reach their father in Australia when the ‘Great Leap Forward‘ in China means their mother dies of starvation and malnutrition. It‘s incredibly moving, and without some luck and the kindness of strangers, things could have gone quite differently. Loved it although it made me cry several times.
