Incl. Living in Hope, Arelhekenhe Angkentye Women's Talk and Kuracca
This limited edition 3-pack of Running Water Community Press titles is a perfect gift for summer reading. It includes three titles from the world's first ever First Nations author run co-operative publisher:
Living In Hope: the complete memoirs of Frank Byrne by Frank Byrne with Frances Coughlan and Gerard Waterford
In this evocative, at-times heartbreaking memoir, Stolen Generations survivor Frank Byrne recounts his life-long search for his mother.
'Told in simple but powerful language, the story is one that all Australians should read to understand the impact of the Stolen Generations on individual lives.' – Small Press Network
Arelhekenhe Angkentye: Women's Talk: Poems of Lyapirtneme from Arrernte Women in Central Australia
'Arrernte women are constantly stretched across two incongruent worlds. The world of Arrernte language, culture, kinship, country and knowledge systems which they are striving to protect and maintain on a daily basis. The modern world with its ongoing colonisation and relentless pressures. Both of these worlds are captured in the poems.' – Penny Drysdale
Kuracca: Us Mob Writing First Nation Voices
'Powerful and palpable, Kuracca honours the work of a cultural powerhouse and matriarch in style. The book showcases the strengths and fresh and exciting writing of a tightly bonded group. This is healing.' – Ellen van Neerven
