Works about this Work

Of Windows and Mirrors : Ambelin Kwaymullin's The Tribe Series, Transformative Fan Cultures and Aboriginal Eptistimologies Annika Herb , Brooke Collins-Gearing , Henk Huijser , 2017 single work criticism
— Appears in: Westerly , vol. 62 no. 1 2017; (p. 110-124)

Indigenous people lived through the end of the world, but we did not end, We survived by holding on to our cultures, our kin, and our sense of what was right in a world gone terribly wrong (Kwaymullina, 'Edges' 29)

'Young Adult Australian post-apocalyptic speculative fiction carries with it a number of expectations and tropes : that characters will exist in a dystopian, ruined landscape, that a lone teenager will rise up and rebel against institutionalised structures of repressive power; and that these youths will carry hope for the future in a destroyed world.'

'For children and adolescents, the tyranny of adults can make any world dystopian. Real or fictional – no apocalypse required. But how does our Australian young adult fiction (of the dystopian variety) differ from that being produced in the US? And why do teenagers love dystopia so much?' (Introduction)
