'ART' (2022) is a stunning new poetry collection by Yamaji author Charmaine Papertalk Green and non-Indigenous author John Kinsella. In one word, this book is ALIVE. It has true collaboration, conversation and playful experimentation. I was left inspired: luisayarns.com/deadlywabookcl…

Ambelin Kwaymullina's ‘Living on Stolen Land’ is a manifesto, a roar to decolonise Australia. I came to see it as a ‘Dummy’s Guide to Decolonisation’ that might be carried in every settler’s back pocket when they forget whose country they are standing on: luisayarns.com/deadlywabookcl…

Kaya! Today we're talking about Alf Taylor's biting memoir 'God, The Devil and Me' - it will make you laugh and cry in equal measure. Taylor recounts his childhood growing up under the hateful hands of the New Noorcia Mission monks and nuns. Read more: luisayarns.com/deadlywabookcl…
