'Lucashenko is a national treasure: there are no two ways around it.' Vogue Australia
Winner of the Victorian Premier's Literary Award * Longlisted for the Miles Franklin Award * Longlisted for the Dublin Literary Award
Two extraordinary stories set five generations apart are connected by a violent colonial history, in Melissa Lucashenko's stunning historical epic
When Mulanyin meets the beautiful Nita in Edenglassie, their saltwater people still outnumber the British. As colonial unrest peaks, Mulanyin dreams of taking his bride home to Yugambeh Country, but his plans for independence collide with white justice.
Two centuries later, fiery activist Winona meets Dr Johnny. Together they care for obstinate centenarian Grannie Eddie, and sparks fly, but not always in the right direction. What nobody knows is how far the legacies of the past will reach into their modern lives.
Miles Franklin Award-winning Indigenous author Melissa Lucashenko asks readers to consider what might have been and, also, what could be.
