A moving and beautiful love story and a historical tour de force set in Victorian times.

Oscar Hopkins, the hydrophobic, noisy-kneed son of a preacher, renounces his father's stern religion in favour of the Anglican Church. Lucinda Leplastrier, a frizzy-haired heiress, impulsively buys a glass factory with the inheritance forced on her by a well-intentioned adviser.

When the two finally meet, on board a ship to New South Wales, Australia, they are bound by their affinity for gambling and risk, their loneliness and their awkwardly blossoming mutual affection. Love will prove to be their ultimate gamble.

I am not native English speaker, maybe this is the cause of the frustration for the register used in this book. Vocabulary is very rich and the tone is noble. For these reasons I had to double listen to some chapters. It is not easy to understand.
The story is engaging but disappointing. The positive thing is that it will surely give a taste of 19th cent Australia.

Disappointing although of great register and tone
