Your attention is the book-The Thorn Birds. There is such a legend - a bird that sings only once in a lifetime, but it's the most beautiful in the world. Once she leaves her nest and flies to look for a bush of thorns and will not rest until she finds it. Among the thorny branches she sings a song and rushes to the longest, sharpest thorn. And, towering over unspeakable torment, he sings so, dying, that this jubilant song would be envied by both the lark and the nightingale. The only, incomparable song, and it gets at the cost of life. But the whole world stops, listening, and God Himself smiles in the sky. For all the best is bought only at the cost of great suffering ... At least so says the legend.

The story begins in 1915 and covers half a century. The Thorn Birds book is divided into seven parts, each of which reveals the character of one of the main characters.
