A proposito di questo titolo

‘Two Perspectives on Wealth and Poverty in Adelaide’ offers a poignant exploration of social class, aspiration, and the struggle between wealth and poverty in pre-Federation Australia. Set against the backdrop of Adelaides free settlement, the narrative unfolds through the lives of diverse characters navigating their fortunes. The recently bereaved Alton family—a widow and her two adult children, Tom and Nettie—sell their rural estate and venture into the gritty inner-city, determined to uphold their dignity while seeking employment for the first time. Meanwhile, the affluent Clinton family operates a successful stock supply business where Tom finds work as a clerk. Robert Clinton, Toms boss, enhances his wealth through savvy mining investments, enabling his wife and daughters, Elsie and Lily, to enjoy the privileges of colonial high society. As Arthur Delta, the Clintons cousin, arrives from England seeking refuge from his familys struggles, a love story unfolds between him and Elsie, setting the stage for a quest for fortune to win her fathers approval and hand in marriage.
