Illustrated by Ken Searle.
A unique and fascinating account of the history of Western Desert communities from an Indigenous perspective.
This multi-award-winning book, now available in paperback, tells the story of how Anangu from five different language groups came to live together at Papunya.
From the time of first contacts with explorers, missionaries and pastoralists, through to the Papunya art movement and the Warumpi Band, this multi-layered text finally leads us to the development of the unique educational environment that is Papunya School. As an example of two way learning, it is a profound metaphor for reconciliation.
