My Place by Sally Morgan

Book Description

Secondhand. Very good condition. Very slight wear to tail right corner.

Winner of the 1987 Australian Human Rights Award for Literature and the 1990 Order of Australia Book Prize.

An Australian classic My Place begins with the experiences of Sally Morgan's own life, growing up in suburban Perth in the 1950s and 1960s. Through the memories and images of her childhood and adolescence, vague hints and echoes begin to emerge, hidden knowledge is uncovered, and a fascinating story unfolds.

It is a deeply moving account of a search for truth, into which a whole family is drawn, finally freeing the tongues of Sally's mother and grandmother, allowing them to tell their stories.
