Ohmygoodness, I love this book. It's such an epic story that spans 40 years and 3 generations of the Cleary family. The only thing that people may object to is the priest's throwing away of his ordination vows. But it's such a well-written book that we almost forgive Father Ralph for succombing to his passion for Meggie.

I re-read it every now and then and remind myself of how much I enjoy this book.

A wonderful saga that takes you through several generations of an Australian family. If you loved the miniseries, you definitely need to read the book as many other facts and details are included that make everything come together even better.
