Benang: From the Heart (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781760993467)

In the vast expanse of Western Australia, a young Indigenous man embarks on a profound journey within himself. Labelled as the successful outcome of his white grandfather s attempts to breed the first white man born, Harley wants to be a failure. Finding himself at a difficult point in the history of his country, family and self, Harley s story takes the reader on an eye-opening and heartbreaking narrative of the impact of colonisation on First Nations people in Australia. From one of Australia s most revered storytellers, Benang sheds light on the ongoing struggle for cultural preservation, and is an epic and beautiful story of celebration and lament, beginning and return.
