Download or read book The Curlew's Eye written by Karen Manton and published by . This book was released on 2021 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As soon as Greta, her husband Joel, and their three sons arrive at the rural Top End property where Joel grew up, she is filled with a sense of unease. There's the dam filled with poisoned water, the burned-out family home on the hill, the crude white stones marking the burial sites of his sister and mother, the irresistible pull and authority of the land itself. And, who is the mysterious girl living in a forlorn hut near the creek? Struggling in the intense humidity of the "buildup" as she plants a garden and helps Joel build a tourist cabin, Greta knows she is an outsider, both to the town and to the land. Using her camera, she tries to make the invisible visible. As she gets drawn into the silent mystery of Joel's family and the secrets of his past, memories from her own beach childhood down south stir in unexpected and sometimes frightening ways. Threading through Greta's experiences is the eerie cry of the curlew like the voice of the land itself, calling her to piece together the grief of the people and the place where she is living, and glimpses of her own past she has pushed aside.

Book Synopsis A Nyoongar Wordlist by : Peter Bindon
Download or read book A Nyoongar Wordlist written by Peter Bindon and published by . This book was released on 2011 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Nyoongar Wordlist brings together in a single volume several separately published word lists for South-West Australian Aboriginal languages and dialects. Commonly these are now known collectively as 'Nyoongar', which, except for some individual words and short phrases still used in daily conversation, is largely unused. However true this may be for the whole language, there remain several hundred Nyoongar words which are preserved as place names throughout the South-West. As development advances and map revision and editing proceed, it is likely that more Nyoongar words will be used as place names and will be added to various maps of the region. Readers will also find clues to the meaning of geographical and place names throughout WA's South-West.
