Críticas:
"A book for everyone: a book with the form and texture of a novel and the complexity and pace of a mystery not solved until the final pages. It is wonderfully entertaining." --New York Times Book Review
"Sad and wise and funny . . . unbelievably and unexpectedly moving, Sally Morgan's love for her own spiritual and racial roots and her struggle to uncover them reveals a new Australia (the old) and a new way to embrace the elders and the young of all our peoples, wherever (and whoever) they might be. A book with heart." --Alice Walker, author, The Color Purple
"Funny and sad and very real: a satisfying and absorbing book, a unique record." --Pittburgh Press
"A moving and quite remarkable account of personal discovery." --Sydney Morning Herald
"One of the most significant milestones in Aboriginal literature." --Australian Magazine

Recounting experiences from travels back to her grandmother's birthplace, this classic of Australian literature documents what started out as a tentative search for information about the author's family—and turned into an overwhelming emotional and spiritual pilgrimage. Unearthing political and societal issues contained within Australia's indigenous culture, this moving account of a search for truth—into which a whole family is gradually drawn—results in the freeing of tongues of the author's mother and grandmother, finally allowing them to tell their own stories.
