✦ Synopsis


La storia di famiglia di Sally Morgan è il racconto di un popolo senza epica, un classico della letteratura aborigena: commovente, a tratti divertente e maestoso come gli spazi sconfinati del continente australiano. Sally dà avvio a un percorso di ricerca doloroso sulla sua discendenza lottando per superare i segreti a lungo taciuti dalla madre e dalla nonna fino alla scoperta della sua provenienza da una tribù di nativi aborigeni. Riprendendo la tradizione del racconto orale, l’autrice riesce a dar voce a un popolo brutalmente calpestato dall’uomo bianco nel silenzio e nell’indifferenza generale. Ma "La mia Australia" (pubblicato nel 1987) è molto più di una testimonianza sulle radici famigliari e la storia dell’Australia. È “un libro scritto con il cuore” come l’ha definito Alice Walker, un messaggio d’amore per le radici spirituali e per un modo di vivere autentico e profondamente intenso.
