A collection of powerful, true stories of Aboriginal life, this anthology brings together 15 memoirs of growing up Aboriginal in Australia. It includes works from Kim Scott, Australia's first indigenous Miles Franklin winner, bestselling author Sally Morgan, and the critically acclaimed artist, author, and activist Bronwyn Bancroft. These true stories of adolescence are as diverse as they are moving, and offer readers insight into the pain, humor, grief, hope, and pride that makes up Indigenous experiences.
