Set in idyllic Gippsland, Victoria, a girl called Steve is the heroine - a complicated, almost incredible, but delightful character. Steve will cheerfully pick peas or sort beans or work on a tea plantation, revelling in the hard manual labor because she can see beauty in its performance. She's a hard-working Australian country girl, habitually dressed in men's clothes and a white topee who sees life through the eyes of a poet. There's lively characters, music-loving Italians, casual Australians, university graduates and laborers - who all love Australia. Regarded as a sequel to The Pea-Pickers.
