More about the book

Focusing on Australian memoirs by public intellectuals, this book explores the complex relationship between settler identity and the historical context of colonial violence against Indigenous peoples. It delves into how these writers, including historians and journalists, confront the legacy of dispossession while seeking to redefine ethical belonging in contemporary Australia. Through their narratives, the memoirs offer fresh insights into the ongoing dialogue about reconciliation and responsibility in a settler colony.
