Maggiori informazioni sul libro

Set in early 19th-century Australia, this narrative follows convict William Buckley, who escapes from a fledgling settlement and encounters the Kulin nation. Rescued by the local Aboriginal people, he is mistaken for a deceased relative and embraced by the Wadawurrung tribe. Over thirty-two years, Buckley immerses himself in their culture, mastering their language and survival techniques. The story explores themes of identity, belonging, and the intersection of two cultures in a historical context.
