What are we talking here, a love affair?

The narrative toggles back and forth between the prisoner-of-war camp, where the surgeon, Dorrigo Evans, struggles to survive and remembers a love affair with his uncle's young wife, and contemporary Australia, where Evans is an old man.

小说的叙事有时发生在战俘营中，军医多利格·埃文斯（Dorrigo Evans）拼命求生，同时回忆着自己同年轻的婶婶的一段风流韵事，有时又切换到现代的澳大利亚，埃文斯已经垂垂老矣。
