Book Synopsis
With humane irony, Jack Davis gives a painful insight into the process of colonisation and the transformation of his people. The Dreamers is the story of a country-town family and old Uncle Worru, who in his dying days, recedes from urban hopelessness to the life and language of the Nyoongah spirit in him, which has survived ''civilisation''.
