Description
In this first instalment of the Guthrie's Lot series, set in the late 1800s, we meet Irvin Guthrie, a practical, no-nonsense man with a sick wife and a small child to care for. When his wife's doctor suggests they move to a warmer climate, he spends everything he has on a property that ends up not being what he expected.
Joanna Grenham has dreams of being a school teacher. When an opportunity presents itself, she jumps at the chance, only to find herself given no choice but to care for Irvin's sick wife and child.
Will Irvin and Joanna make the most of their circumstances, or will they forever find life as hard and unyielding as the ground in A Spacious Place.

Person
Born in the wrong century, Olwyn Harris has spent a lot of time craving time travel in a way that can include life essentials like Belgium milk chocolate, air-conditioning and laptops. With a passion for companioning people in their stories, whether they be real or trumped up, she takes inexplicable pleasure in finding the common ground in our human and spiritual experiences. She is enamoured with the mystery of how the ordinary transforms to extraordinary when given a generous brush-down with the presence of prayer and considers it her personal life-quest to find the heroine in all of us.
When she is not time-travelling, she lives in the Whitsundays: is a wife, mother, counsellor, pastor, and spiritual director.
