Terra Nullius takes the reader to a kind of fictional future-history of Australia. We hit the ground running matching the frantic pace of Jacky, a Native escaped from the convent school where he is treated little better than a slave. The Settlers are soon on Jacky’s trail and Trooper Rohan, famed and feared for his violent temper, is none too happy to be setting off into the harsh Australian interior to bring the fugitive Jacky home.
Claire G Coleman's Terra Nullius is an important insight into the history and impact of dispossession, and a cracking good read from a new Australian voice!
