First published in 1948. It is about the Darcy Family, second generation Irish-Australians who live in the slums of Surry Hills in Sydney 1940's in the years after World War Two. There's Hughie Darcy, fond of a quick one at the pub every now and then, Mumma who at times seems the only one with any sense, Rowena "Roie" Darcy who is arguable the novel's protagonist, her smart tomboyish sister Dolour Darcy and Grandma. They live in 12 1/4 Plymouth Street with two of the rooms let to radical Orangeman Patrick Diamond and Miss Sheilly and her son Johnny. Later joined by Roie's husband Charlie Rothe and their daughter Moira. |
