Klappentext
'One of the great English-language novels of the twentieth century' THE PARIS REVIEW
'The Transit of Venus is astronomical: as sharp, remote and dazzling as a celestial body' LAUREN GROFF
'A wonderfully mysterious book . . . unforgettably rich' ANNE TYLER
The tragedy is not that love doesn't last. The tragedy is the love that lasts.
Two sisters, Caroline and Grace Bell, leave Australia to begin a new life in post-war England. Courted long and hopelessly by young scientist, Ted Tice, strong-willed Caro is to find that love brings both betrayal and hope. The milder Grace seeks fulfilment in an apparently happy marriage. But as the decades pass and their paths weave and cross across the world - from Sydney to London, New York to Stockholm - two slow-burning secrets wait in ambush for them.
Shirley Hazzard's breathtaking masterpiece is an intricately plotted Greek tragedy, a sweeping family saga, and a desperate love story.
