— Review of Benevolence Julie Janson , 2020 single work novel 'You not waibala, you not blackfella. You in between. So Granny Wiring tells Muraging, the protagonist in Julie Janson's latest thought-provoking novel, Benevolence. While this is not Janson's first foray into historical fiction — The Light Horse Ghost was published in 2018 — it is a tale close to her heart. While Benevolence is based on the oral histories of Darug elders and the archival snippets of her own great-great-grand-mother, Janson's characters evoke notions of belonging and benevolence in early settler Australia. Primarily set on Darug country between 1813 and 1842, Benevolence draws attention to the survival and adaptation of Aboriginal communities in the face of the destruction wrought by colonialism.'
