This book comprises the screenplay of the four part television drama series about the 'experiences of Aborigines since the coming of the first white people to Australia over 200 years ago. The chief protagonist in each drama is a woman whose resilience in the face of despair and destruction gives fresh insight into the history of race relations in Australia.'

extract
Sussex and Buckrich bring together Australian female authors who are quirky, idiosyncratic and inventive, presenting a mix of reprint and original material. The twenty-three authors whose works appear in this anthology range from the well known,
such as M. Barnard Eldershaw and Gabrielle Lord, to emerging writers such as Leanne Frahm and Lisa Jacobson.
In her introduction, American author Ursula Le Guin argues that women writers see 'a rather different world to men and describe it by rather different means. Working within the parameters of the fantastic provides "a rebel's mode" which enables women writers to "knock the posts out from under the status quo".' Melbourne : Sybylla Press , 1995 pg. 20
