It was a cloudless summer day in the year nineteen hundred.
Everyone
at Appleyard College for Young Ladies agreed it was just right for a
picnic at Hanging Rock. After lunch, a group of three of the girls
climbed into the blaze of the afternoon sun, pressing on through the
scrub into the shadows of Hanging Rock. Further, higher, till at last
they disappeared.
They never returned.
Whether Picnic at Hanging Rock is fact or fiction the reader must decide for themselves.
