Description: "Impulsive, idealistic and restless, Emily Stanton finds herself, with university behind her, on the threshold of life. When she is introduced to a Scottish engineer whose life in France offers the exotic, she leaves her family home in twenties Melbourne to become his wife, and to find a world of Parisian colour.

But far from providing answers, marriage awakens in her an ardent desire to find a reason for living - a desire that leads her to flirt with risk, passion and unorthodox friendships and carries her to Tunisia, on a journey of self-questioning and intellectual reawakening, towards a crossroads in her life."--BOOK JACKET.
