Award-winning Goorie author Melissa Lucashenko discusses her book Edenglassie with ABC's Kate Evans. This epic novel torches Queensland’s colonial myths, while reimagining an Australian future.
Set in Brisbane when First Nations people still outnumber the colonists, Melissa Lucashenko tells two extraordinary stories set five generations apart. When Mulanyin meets the beautiful Nita in Edenglassie, their saltwater people still outnumber the British. As colonial unrest peaks, Mulanyin dreams of taking his bride home to Yugambeh Country, but his plans for independence collide with white justice.
Two centuries later, fiery activist Winona meets Dr Johnny. Together they care for obstinate centenarian Granny Eddie, and sparks fly, but not always in the right direction. What nobody knows is how far the legacies of the past will reach into their modern lives.
