Published by CUSTOM BOOK PUBLICATIONS Born prematurely in the untamed Victorian bush, a tiny infant hovers between life and death, too weak to suckle from her mother. Her grandmother invents a way to feed her. With patience and a determination, Juliet survives. Raped and pregnant at fifteen, and knowing nothing of the facts of life, she is trapped in a world of ignorance. She loses her direction, and sinks into depression when her daughter is taken away. Married off to a widower in a loveless and undesirable match, after three children she avoids her husband's bed by making hats. Only in middle-age does she finds her true self in a way she could never have dreamed. The hatmaker's loves ... a tale of tough men, tougher women, isolation and cruelty!
