1 4 y separately published work icon Kurlumarniny : We Come from the Desert Monty Hale , Anne Scrimgeour (editor), Barbara Hale (translator), Mark Clendon (translator), Anne Scrimgeour (translator), Canberra : Aboriginal Studies Press , 2012 Z1847773 2012 single work life story 'In this remarkable bilingual publication, Minyjun tells of his family’s migration from the desert to the station country of the eastern Pilbara, his childhood growing up on Mt Edgar Station, his witnessing of Australia’s engagement in World War II, and his allegiance to Don McLeod, a key spokesperson for the Aboriginal workers during the Pilbara station-workers’ strike in 1946. Kurlumarniny: We come from the desert is rich in humour and in the ways of Ngulipartu culture. Some of the stories he tells are deeply personal. For example, we learn about Minyjun’s relationship with Nalma, a woman who was ‘wrong side’ for him. Together they left the group and went into hiding, remaining away from their community for a number of years before their marriage was finally accepted. Through Minyjun’s remarkable memory, his vast cultural knowledge and his strong desire to leave a record of his life, readers can share in this unique story.'
