"In Two Years' Time, Vol. 1" by Ada Cambridge is a novel written in the late 19th century.

The story unfolds amid the backdrop of family dynamics and the emotional turmoil of leaving behind a cherished home. The opening portion introduces readers to Kitty's family environment in Narraporwidgee, highlighting the interactions between her and her parents as they discuss their plans to return to England.
