M L Stedman - A Far Flung Life
Book Launch Celebration
Penguin Books and Everyman are teaming up to celebrate the publication of A Far Flung Life, the mesmeric new novel from the author of the award-winning global bestseller, The Light Between Oceans.
A Far Flung Life is the newest novel from writer M L Stedman, set in Outback Western Australia, 1958: For generations, the MacBrides have lived on a remote sheep station, Meredith Downs. A million arid acres, it’s an ocean of land, where the weather is a capricious god, and time still roams untamed.
One ordinary day, on a lonely road, under the unending blue sky, patriarch Phil MacBride swerves to avoid a kangaroo. In seconds, the lives of the entire MacBride family are shattered. Instead of leaving wounds to heal, Fate comes for them yet again, in a twist of consequences that will cause one of them to lose their life, and another to sacrifice theirs for the sake of an innocent child. Matt, the youngest MacBride, is plunged into a moral and emotional journey for which there is no map, no guide, as he is forced to choose between love and duty, sacrifice and happiness.
