Love and survival amid the upheaval of war

Good Condition - Dust jacket shows rubbing, marks and edge wear, with creasing and small chips at the spine ends. Page edges toned.

As Japanese forces advance into Java in 1942, young Nicholas Duncan and Anna Van Heerden are caught in events that will transform their lives. Nicholas, a butterfly collector, and Anna, a girl of Eurasian and Dutch heritage, become the emotional centre of a story that follows men and women across the islands of the Pacific and the Indian Ocean. Invasion, flight and the struggle for control of the region place private hopes against the immense pressures of war. Bryce Courtenay combines adventure and romance with a cast whose fortunes extend far beyond the fighting, tracing the enduring effects of those years across a changing world and towards a reunion with the past.
