LONGLISTED FOR THE MILES FRANKLIN AWARD
From the acclaimed author of the Miles Franklin longlisted Madukka: The River
Serpent (UWA) and the Barbara Jefferis Award shortlisted Benevolence, Compassion
continues Julie Janson's emotional and intense literary exploration of the
complex and dangerous lives of Aboriginal women during the 1800s in colonial New
South Wales, which she began in Benevolence as a counter narrative to colonial
history in Australian literature.
Compassion is the dramatised life story of one of Julie Janson's ancestors who
went on trial for stealing livestock in New South Wales, and it is an exciting
and violent story of anti-colonial revenge and roaming adventure. A gripping
fictive account of Aboriginal life in the 1800s, Compassion follows the life of
Duringah, AKA Nell James, the outlaw daughter of the Darug hero of Benevolence,
Muraging.
