A Bride from the Bush
by E. W. Hornung
Today, the family will not think anything about the fact that one of their sons fell in love with an Australian woman. However, in the hundred-nineteenth century, the news was perceived somewhat differently. Indeed, for the true English family of Blich in E. W. Hornung's book "The Bride from the Bush," the post giving this information sounds like a bomb exploding on the breakfast table. The author deftly turns what began as a classic fairy tale about fish in the water into a magical mystery.
