Resilience, courage and determination of the matriarch

Oct. 16, 2011 - PRLog -- This is the compelling story of an ordinary woman, born and bred in Melbourne at the very end of the 19th century. It is a journey of nostalgia through World War I, the Roaring Twenties, the Great Depression, the shocking aftermath of World War II.

Rose is the fifth child in a family of six. Although circumstances dictate that Rose becomes the backbone of her family, she is swept into the arms of a handsome but devious young man-about-town. Rose suffers rape, betrayal and abuse.

Meanwhile her family is touched closely by the trauma of war, women’s fight to vote, embezzlement, power struggles and the hardship of the Depression. Through all this, Rose is challenged, but  she shines through with resilience, courage and determination. She becomes The Matriarch.
