'Renowned Eastern Arrernte painter Kathleen Kemarre Wallace tells stories of her elders and their way of life that she learnt as a child and young woman. Her storytelling illuminates the origins and beliefs of Eastern Arrernte people, and calls for respect for the ancient traditions of the altyerre spirits who brought her country into being. Kathleen's knowledge of country, law and culture shine through in her words and mesmerising paintings.' (Source: Back Cover)

In this second-year core subject, students will be introduced to key questions in the study of twentieth- and twenty-first-century narrative, including: what is narrative, what is text, what is aesthetic form and how does it shape narrative possibilities? Students will work with examples from fiction and non-fiction, including: realism, magical realism and anti-realism, and the autobiographic text. The subject will bridge literary studies and creative writing, enhancing the critical and creative skills of students' writing practices.
