Eleanor Hogan Books

Focusing on Aboriginal households in remote central Australia, the book explores the complexities of internet access and adoption in communities that opt out of digital connectivity despite available infrastructure. It challenges conventional views of the digital divide, arguing that digital exclusion reflects deeper social dynamics rather than mere lack of access. By examining the implications of internet use, the authors raise critical questions about equality and the potential role of connectivity in addressing the challenges of remote living.

Eleanor Hogan's "Alice Springs" explores the unique and contrasting life in this Australian town through its seasonal changes. With a blend of humor and pathos, the book offers an insightful look into the everyday experiences of a community in the enduring desert landscape.

Both famous in their day, Daisy Bates and Ernestine Hill were bestselling writers who told of life in the vast Australian interior. Eleanor Hogan reflects on the lives and work of these indefatigable women. With sensitivity and insight, she wonders whether their work speaks to us today and what their legacies as fearless female outliers might be.
