Books by Patricia Wrightson
This book should be read by more Australians in order to understand how the Aboriginal people think. It's a tale of mythic splendour, narrated as slowly as a day in the Outback. An interesting aspect is the division of the Australian White people into two sorts, the 'happy' people who are satisfied by the commercial and the ephemeral of life in the popular towns and cities, and then the others, those who live deep in the outback and harsh places and who have become flinty, real and tough, shaped by the arid country and comfortable in it. But the chief hero is Wirrun, an Aboriginal boy, who ekes out a minimal living as a service station attendant and yet who is called upon to save his country and his people from a dire threat; ice and winter brought in by creatures determined to change even the topography of the land. How he responds to that challenge and the frightening things he has to face and try to overcome, is the theme of the tale, It is part of a trilogy. .
