Just stunning. This one sucked me in quite early, and I was transported to a place of isolation and hardship.

Set in a remote part of Australia during 'colonial' times, this meticulously told story of a family trying to eke out a living on land that could never belong to them.

Covers issues of family loyalty and duty, race relations, gender issues, all in very powerful yet real ways.

Breathtaking - and one that should be read by all Australians, particularly non-Aboriginal Australians
