About

With a meticulously researched, absorbing verse narrative, Colleen Keating brings Olive Muriel Pink's significant, neglected history to life with distinctive, beautiful imagery. In powerful lyrical stanzas, she tells the story of Olive's struggle for recognition as a female anthropologist, her lifelong work for the rights of the Warlpiri and Arrernte people she loved and lived among, and the creation of her arid garden. Olive's persistence, her triumphs and her passion for justice make for uplifting and compelling reading.
