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
