My Brilliant Career by Miles Franklin

Sybylla Melvyn yearns for a life in the arts. She loves music and is determined to write a book. But as the daughter of a poor dairy farmer, she despairs of ever realising her ambitions. Then comes the opportunity for Sybylla to go and live with wealthy relatives. In her new home she tastes a life of culture and refinement. She also meets handsome, rich Harold Beecham, who offers her a future most young women would dream of. But Sybylla is torn between a comfortable married life and the career she craves. Will Harold win her over? How will Sybylla live with the choice she makes?

Stella Maria Sarah Miles Franklin (1879-1954) was born into a New South Wales pioneering family. She resided in London from 1918 to 1933, then returned to Australia in 1933, where she spent the rest of her life.
