These are legacies just too big for a young wife who finds life on a remote farm with shy, awkward Karl and his detestable father almost unbearable. But farming husbands and wives are married to their land as much as to each other. Reviving her mother?s beekeeping re-energises her life? As Augusta relives the story of her sometimes harsh and sometimes magical life, we are drawn into a world of rich domestic detail and into the life, death and resurrection of a marriage.* This is a VG copy of the 1st./1st. thus with minimal age & shelf wear.*
