- "Towards the end of the nineteenth century, a woman and a man were born at the opposite ends of the earth. Each died in south-eastern Australia over 80 years later. Strangers to each other, they lived vastly different lives. Both were known to Peter Robb, who remembers them here and speaks about the forms that exile can take, the challenges and the costs."-- National Library of Australia's promotional pamphlet.
