Description

Sally Morgan's seminal work, "My Place," is a profound exploration of identity, family, and the search for truth. Initially unaware of her Aboriginal heritage, the author recounts her childhood through a child's innocent perspective, gradually unraveling a hidden past. The narrative blossoms as she embarks on a journey to uncover her family's history, leading to poignant conversations with her Great Uncle Arthur and her Nan, Daisy. This memoir and biographical account weaves together the stories of an Aboriginal mother and her children with a white stationmaster, ultimately revealing a deeply personal quest for belonging and connection.
