'Land is the starting point and core of Judith Wright's reflection on racism . Her work sheds light on the dispossession of Aboriginal life, livelihood and land rights by white Australians. Her family novels challenge the myth of "No Man's Land", accuse the genocide in the process of white colonization, and supplement and revise the official historical narrative. Wright was an early white writer who paid attention to the indigenous labor force. She cast her eyes on the exploitation and discrimination encountered by the landless indigenous people in the process of solving food and livelihood problems. She objected to white environmentalists' efforts to turn so-called wilderness into national parks, arguing that the move was a further disenfranchisement of Aboriginal land rights and another form of "no man's land". Wright faced up to racial barriers, advocated and practiced intercultural dialogue, and made important contributions to the restoration of race relations in Australia. He is a national conscience ahead of the times.' (Introduction)
