Danh ngôn của Geraldine Brooks
Sydney in the 1960s wasn't the exuberant multicultural metropolis it is today. Out in the city's western reaches, days passed in a sun-struck stupor. In the evenings, families gathered on their verandas waiting for the 'southerly buster' - the thunderstorm that would break the heat and leave the air cool enough to allow sleep.

Sydney vào những năm 1960 không phải là đô thị đa văn hóa sôi động như ngày nay. Ở phía Tây thành phố, nhiều ngày trôi qua trong sự sững sờ vì nắng. Vào buổi tối, các gia đình tụ tập ngoài hiên chờ đợi 'cơn bão phương nam' - cơn giông sẽ xua tan cái nóng và khiến không khí mát mẻ để có thể ngủ được.
