Something like Jasmine : A Sweeping Tale of Thwarted Love, Chris Raja , single work review
— Review of Sunbirds Mirandi Riwoe , 2023 single work novel ;
'The potential for Australian literature to address the history of colonised people in this country and elsewhere is of great consequence. New perspectives not only rewrite history to include ‘herstory’, but also reconsider what we believe and broaden our view of ourselves as active contributors to our collective and individual past. A spate of recent books has attempted to do this: Anita Heiss’s Bila Yarrudhanggalangdhuray: River of Dreams (2021) and Geraldine Brooks’s Horse (2022) are two that come to mind.' (Introduction)
