Landovel - Emily Rodda - Bog - Allen & Unwin - Plusbog.dk

Derry knows no other life than that of a slave on Cram''s Rock. Shunned by the other captives for being Cram''s poison taster, and trying to make sense of the brief flashes of memory he has of his previous life, his only solace are the books he has access to in Cram''s stolen library - but even that must remain a secret, as his ability to read is forbidden in luddite True Landovel. So Derry keeps himself to himself, with no friends and no future beyond surviving another day. Until the day everything changes, when a traveller arrives at Cram''s Rock on the run from the mythical El executioners, and soon all the slaves are rescued by the mysterious librarian Lehane. Taken to more progressive Free Landovel, Derry and three companions are chosen for a dangerous quest that will change the future of True and Free Landovel forever, and upend everything that Derry knows about the world ... and himself.

Endurance - Tim Griffiths - Bog - Allen & Unwin - Plusbog.dk

Endurance - Tim Griffiths - Bog - Allen & Unwin - Plusbog.dk

This novel tells the story of a real-life Australian hero, photographer, explorer and adventurer Frank Hurley. It is a story told through his eyes and in his words, and it reveals a tantalising portrait of the man behind the legend he has become.Hurley''s photographs and documentaries of Douglas Mawson''s and Ernest Shackleton''s Antarctic expeditions, and his astounding images of World War I have been so widely exhibited and reproduced that in many cases they are the principal means by which we have come to see those world-shattering events. His iconic images of the ship Endurance trapped in an ocean of ice, of men battling the most extreme elements in the Antarctic, and suffering under unthinkable conditions in war are imprinted on the Australian consciousness. One writer has claimed that Frank Hurley ''is the twentieth century''.Here now is the man, Hurley, telling us of his part in the two ill-fated Antarctic expeditions and recounting tales of great heroism and suffering as he fights for his life among the ice and the elements, and witnesses the worst ravages of war on the Western Front. Endurance is an extraordinary debut novel, a rollicking white-knuckle adventure story that also takes us to the very heart of heroism and sacrifice.

Truganini - Cassandra Pybus - Bog - Allen & Unwin - Plusbog.dk

Truganini - Cassandra Pybus - Bog - Allen & Unwin - Plusbog.dk

*Winner of the 2021 National Biography Award and shortlisted for the 2020 Queensland Literary Awards* Cassandra Pybus''s ancestors told a story of an old Aboriginal woman who would wander across their farm on Bruny Island, in south-east Tasmania, in the 1850s and 1860s. As a child, Cassandra didn''t know this woman was Truganini, and that Truganini was walking over the country of her clan, the Nuenonne.For nearly seven decades, Truganini lived through a psychological and cultural shift more extreme than we can imagine. But her life was much more than a regrettable tragedy. Now Cassandra has examined the original eyewitness accounts to write Truganini''s extraordinary story in full.Hardly more than a child, Truganini managed to survive the devastation of the 1820s, when the clans of south-eastern Tasmania were all but extinguished. She spent five years on a journey around Tasmania, across rugged highlands and through barely penetrable forests, with George Augustus Robinson, the self-styled missionary who was collecting the survivors to send them into exile on Flinders Island. She has become an international icon for a monumental tragedy - the so-called extinction of the original people of Tasmania.Truganini''s story is inspiring and haunting - a journey through the apocalypse.''For the first time a biographer who treats her with the insight and empathy she deserves. The result is a book of unquestionable national importance.'' - PROFESSOR HENRY REYNOLDS, University of Tasmania

Volcano - Claire Saxby - Bog - Allen & Unwin - Plusbog.dk

Volcano - Claire Saxby - Bog - Allen & Unwin - Plusbog.dk

Deep in the ocean, far beyond the reach of even the brightest sun, the earth quakes. Hagfish scatter and snailfish flutter. Lava pillows flash and fade, rumpling the seabed as a new volcano births a mountain. Where hot meets cold, a chimney forms. Here begins a colony of unexpected creatures. Other chimneys grow and cool, grow and cool, while the mountain stretches ever upwards. A rumble becomes a roar and the sea boils. Lava fireworks the sky. A new island is born.More volcanoes erupt under water than exist on land. In the vein of Iceberg and Tree - combining deep scientific research, lyrical language and stunning illustrations - Volcano is the next exploration of the natural world from the CBCA award-winning team of Claire Saxby and Jess Racklyeft.

Slow - Brooke Mcalary - Bog - Allen & Unwin - Plusbog.dk

''Dear Mr & Mrs Jones, I am writing to inform you of my withdrawal from the race to keep up with you . . .'' Once upon a time, Brooke McAlary thought she was close to having it all. Married to a wonderful man, mother to a lively young daughter, and pregnant for a second time, she''d acquired all the things she''d once thought important-holidays, cars, a renovated home. Yet despite this, she found herself utterly despondent. Realising that they wanted a simpler, more fulfilling existence, Brooke and her family gradually created their own way of living, with an emphasis on depth, connection and experiences. In Slow Brooke gently encourages you to find pleasure and value in a simpler life, sharing the practical tips and rituals that have helped her on her own journey, from decluttering to de-owning, messiness to mindfulness, from asking why to asking where to now?Part memoir, part practical companion, Slow provides a fascinating insight into the benefits of slowing down. It will inspire you to forget about the Joneses and create a life filled with the things that really matter to you . . . slowly, of course.
