AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'From 2008-2011 I lived and worked in Warburton Ranges Remote Aboriginal Community, in the Ngaanyatjarra Lands, Western Australia. About 500 people live here, in the middle of an enormous desert. Space is closer (100 km above our heads) than the nearest major towns, Kalgoolie and Alice Springs, both more than 900 km away. Warburton is the most compelling place I know.' (5)

    'In September 2013 just before the weather turned even more intense a group of intrepid writers made their way to three Australian desert settings to work with groups and individuals wishing to write. Both Aboriginal people with a profound connection to country and residents of more recent arrival who had made the choice to live in remote places participated in workshops. You’ll read new voices and hear perspectives on living in extreme geographical and climactic regions in today’s Australia. In the variety presented here we welcome you into the vitality of remote communities often isolated but full of commitment and hope for the future.' (Publication summary)
