FROM THE PUBLISHER - A collection of Aboriginal short stories which open the door to an entirely unique world of human life and struggle. BABARU proves that the critical acclaim for B. Wongar's first book, THE TRACK TO BRALGU, (Little Brown, 1978), was neither accidental nor exaggerated. Like that first collection, BABARU is a ‘fine book of fantastic stories, by an Australian aborigine, which depicts that lethal conflict between a race that sees the earth as no more than a quarry and another and more ancient one to whom it is an extension of body, soul, and family.'
