'Machosky talks about the writings of Iris Milutinovic. In her writing, Milutinovic spoke in many voices, speaking for others but with an honest effort to speak truly. Most notably, she spoke in the voice of the unassimilated immigrant in her one published novel, but also significantly in the voice of an Aboriginal woman, revised and revisited, and above all, she spoke in her own voice, as a woman struggling to survive, to write, to be heard.'
