Written by June Epstein, the narrative presents Ross not merely as an individual but as a lens through which readers witness an era of profound change — in women's roles, community life, and Australian identity — told with warmth, precision, and deep human sympathy.\n\nEpstein's biographical voice is measured yet evocative, drawing on intimate detail to reconstruct a life lived with quiet purpose and enduring conviction. The title itself, borrowed from William Blake's verse — I give you the end of a golden string — signals the book's deeper ambition: to connect the reader to something true and lasting within one woman's story. For those who treasure biography that transcends the personal to become a meditation on place, time, and the resilience of the human spirit, this is an essential and deeply rewarding read.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Secondhand Stock","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":49130931323099,"sku":"2026100007010-SECONDHAND","price":15.0,"currency_code":"AUD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0523\/7646\/9701\/files\/808d711c-e074-43ea-b9e2-aa4d71ee2f3f.png?v=1786592627","url":"https:\/\/bookgrocer.com\/products\/2026100007010-secondhand-a-golden-string-the-story-of-dorothy-j-ross","provider":"Book Grocer","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
