"HR" is a family saga. It begins in 1895 with the arranged
marriage of a young Jewish girl in Vienna, Austria
and ends 70 years later with that same girl as a great grandmother
of a part-Aboriginal child in Sydney, Australia.
It is the story of three generations of women
and it is a book about love and survival.
Set against the catachyslmic
historic events of last century,
it is packed with intriguing characters
and, in depicting their lives,
touches on themes of social, racial and gender inequalities.
