'A gentle whisper from the past
Visits me in my dreams
Or is it the future that I see ... '

From well-known poets John Kinsella and Charmaine Papertalk-Green comes atĂŞte-Ă -tĂŞte that is powerful, thought provoking, and challenges what we think we know about our country, colonisation, and how we understand our land. Striking conversations surrounding childhood, life, love, mining, death, respect, and diversity; imbued by silken Yamatji sensibility and sublimely responded to by the son of a foreman from South Champion Mine.


This extraordinary publication weaves two differing points of view together as Papertalk-Green and Kinsella's words traverse this land and reflect back to us all, our many identities and quiet voices.
