About

Take a step out of your comfort zone this season as we delve into a five-part focus on writing from across Asia and the Pacific, linking to themes and histories presented in APT9. Book 3: Tracker (2017), Alexis Wright Alexis Wright returns to non-fiction in this award-winning collective memoir of the charismatic Aboriginal leader, political thinker and entrepreneur Tracker Tilmouth. Taken from his family as a child and brought up in a mission on Croker Island, Tracker worked tirelessly for Aboriginal self-determination, creating opportunities for land use and economic development in his many roles, including Director of the Central Land Council of the Northern Territory. The book is as much a testament to the powerful role played by storytelling in contemporary Aboriginal life as it is to the legacy of an extraordinary man. $12 Members | $17 Members' guests (includes coffee/tea and sweets) / Book online or call (07) 3840 7278 to join the monthly discussions hosted by Book Club Facilitator Eve Jensen / Members receive 20% off current and past Book Club titles from the QAGOMA Store.
