The speaking land is an anthology of almost 200 myth from a number of different aboriginal cultures. The stories are a major contribution to the development and recognition of an aboriginal traditional literature. The stories are grouped around themes such as snakes and rainbows, breaking the rules, stories of origins, eroticism and the clash of aboriginal and western cultures. None of the stories are of a secret-sacred nature.
