Going Inland

Summary

It's the mid-nineties and Tom and Zoe Drewe, like thousands of others, are going around Australia. Their journey, began in certainty and on their terms, takes on its own momentum and compulsions, until they are driven as much as driving, and increasingly acted upon by the power and histories of the land whose surface they cross. Compelling, moving, disturbing, this important novel confronts the dark side of the Australian psyche, exploring what it means to be an Australian, and the nature of belonging.
