The Time We Have Taken




Well, it didn't take much time at all to finish Wanting. I came to the end of this heart-breaking story about a nasty time in Tasmania's history, in the late 1800s, last night. What happened to the Aboriginal girl and many of her people in this story (and in this period of history) is definitely not for the squeamish. Kind of an interesting read to have finished just before Australia Day.

Anyway, we seem to be on safer neurotic white ground at the moment, with another Steven Caroll book, The Time We Have Taken.
