About the book

Peter Carey's Oscar and Lucinda tells the story of two unconventional individuals whose lives intersect in nineteenth-century Australia. Oscar is a deeply religious but compulsive gambler, while Lucinda is an independent heiress fascinated by glassmaking. Their relationship leads to an extraordinary wager involving the construction and transport of a glass church, combining romance, obsession and colonial history.
