| Summary Note |
"Sara Dane tells the epic story of a poor, impish convict girl determined to escape a life of depravation and join the ranks of the colonial gentry. From the hold of a prison ship bound for Sydney, Sara is released to become a maid whereupon she sets out to rise up out of her harsh convict roots. Stripped of her rags, the now luminous Sara Dane is coveted by the ship's officer, Andrew Macleay, who she marries to the chagrin of the colony's social circles. But they underate Sara's fiercely independent spirit and driving ambition"--Container. |
