Remembering Babylon

David Malouf

Winner of the 1996 International Impac Dublin Literary Award.

In the 1840s, a ship's boy cast ashore in northern Australia is taken in by the Indigenous people. Sixteen years later he steps out of the bush and inadvertently confronts the new white settlers with their unspoken terrors.

The story of a boy caught between two worlds, Remembering Babylon is a picture of Australia at the time of its foundation, focused on the hostility between early British settlers and native Aboriginal people
