Episode: FALL FAMILY SPECIAL: BRIGHTEN'S SISTER-IN-LAW by HENRY LAWSON
Description: This story was a great find and is still one of our best performing episodes. Henry Lawson's "Brighten's Sister-In-Law" is a poignant narrative, a classic example of the Australian bush ballad. The story recounts a drover's desperate race against time to save his ailing son, Harry, and the unexpected salvation he finds in a woman society has cast aside.  Announcing our new website www.Bestof1001Stories.com !
