I am reading a very passionate tale a saga of a family and the impossibile love of the heroine………But what I loved most was the opening passag talking about the legend of the “Thorn Birds”….it goes thus…
” There is a legend about a bird which sings just once in its life, more sweetly than any other creature on the face of the earth. From the moment it leaves the nest it searches for a thorn tree, and does not rest until it has found one. Then singing among the savage branches, it impales itself on the longest, sharpest spine. And, dying, it rises above its own agony to out carol the lark and the nightingale. One superlative song, exsistence the price. But the whole world stills to listen , and God in his heaven smiles. For the best is only bought at the cost of great pain………Or so says the legend…”
And also i got know where my dearest friend Meghnien got her lovely and exotic name from…..its from the thorn birds whose lead character is the beautiful and passionate Meghan……
