Описание: In wartime Sydney, young Daniel Jordan's life is dominated by two conflicting influences: the religion he imbibes at school and the communism of his terrifying neighbour, the 'Comrade'. Through Daniel's often amusingly confused view of the adult world, Thomas Keneally deftly explores the effects of rigid adherence to dogma and the fine line between innocence and guilt.

Описание: The story of Joan of Arc has always held a special fascination for writers - among them Voltaire, Mark Twain, George Bernard Shaw and Jean Anouilh. Here Thomas Keneally transforms the legend, presenting a Joan who is at once a tough radical, an instinctive soldier, a nagging prophet and a touchingly vulnerable girl - a haunting and compelling heroine framed by the tumultuous times in which she lived.

Описание: Inspired by a true incident that took place in Australia in 1984, this powerful and disturbing novel focuses on Rudi Kabbel, a survivor of Nazi-occupied Belorussia, and Terry Delaney, a young Australian rugby player who falls in love with Kabbel's daughter. With the optimism and innocence of those unscathed by war, Delaney gropes to understand Kabbel's outlook on life. All too slowly he grasps the implications of Kabbel's vision, too late to averts its tragic consequences.
