Publisher Description
In Loving Country, co-authors Bruce Pascoe and Vicky Shukurolgou show travellers how to see the country as herself, to know her whole and old story, and to find the way to fall in love with her, our home.
Listeners are encouraged to discover sacred Australia by reconsidering the accepted history and hearing diverse stories of her Indigenous people. The intention of this audiobook is to foster communication and understanding between all peoples and country, to encourage environmental and social change.
Co-authors Bruce Pascoe and Vicky Shukuroglou hope that all communities will be heard when they tell their stories, and that these stories and the country from which they have grown will be honoured.
From the ingenious fish traps at Brewarrina and the rivers that feed the Great Barrier Reef, to the love stories of Wiluna and the whale story of Margaret River, there is so much to celebrate here. For those who want to enrich their understanding of our world, and for travelers looking for more than a whistle-stop tour of Australia, this audiobook offers some keys to unlock and reveal the heart of this loving country.
