Description: Stolen Fruit is a saga that breaks rules. It's a raw and real tale of pioneer life in the Australian bush against a background of World War Two. A time in which citizens lived daily with the fear of invasion. This Babushka Doll of a book reveals stories within stories. It flies back and forth between past, present and future. Magic shares the stage with brutality. It's a social history, family drama and romance. Gold-mining days melt into nuclear clouds. It explores struggle, courage, heartbreak, addiction, coming of age, and more.
