The great fire [sound recording] / by Shirley Hazzard.
In war-torn Asia and stricken Europe, men and women, still young but veterans of harsh experience, must reinvent their lives and expectations, and learn, from their past, to dream again.

His counterpart, a young girl living in occupied Japan and tending her dying brother, falls in love, and in the process discovers herself.
