How to write a review when the story I read had such an ethereal quality while also being so raw, grounded and honest.

For a white Australian this story reminds, and confronts, me with the cataclysmic change inflicted on the indigenous people for the last 200 years… and counting ..

But this is now a shared story full of imbalance, and complexities. The people who live in this story are strong, resistant, brutal, odd, driven and all the other things that influence individuals and groups in power and on the margins to behave and be who they are.

Wonderfully written, but stay focused because the story can slip away from consciousness.. into a dream like world .. the land and seascape are ever present … but it has eked into my being and thinking and, I hope, for good.
