Once the shock of finding themselves in a totally stranger environment wears off, Didi and her sister’s boyfriend Jamie, decide to make the best of their unusual circumstances. They don’t even like each other and now they must live together. Against a backdrop of post-Depression Melbourne, the coming of refugees from Northern Europe, and the October season of Wirth’s Circus, their relationship gradually matures. But eventually the terrible implications of their plight sinks in and they realise that they must find a way home. Or stay in this decade forever.

This exciting, fast moving story highlights the difference between today’s comparative freedom of language, behaviour and dress, and the more conservative attitudes of the 1930’s. Melbourne during the Depression is vividly portrayed, with an overlying theme of time transcended by the human qualities of love and friendship. This is compelling reading.
