This highly readable book ... has the potential to spark empathy and generate important discussion, and deserves to be read widely.' Bookseller + Publisher 'Searingly honest, this is a compelling and harrowing book in which Stan Grant adds his strong voice to the clamour for social justice and indigenous rights.' New Internationalist

Our property on the Hawkesbury River abounds still with wallabies, snakes and goannas and our waterway leaps with fish at night. These were some of the foods of the people who once dwelled here, perhaps in the caves above our house or on top of the hill in humpies where they could see over dips and valleys to the sea. But now, there are only aboriginal middens to remind us that other families once lived in this bushland area. There is also another place here: an overhang where fresh water drips frequently from the rocks. Many years back, it's here that I sensed something evil had happened and have never wanted to return to that spot. Stan Grant's book is powerful, sensitive, brave and poetic and should be a cause for all Australians of only British descent to ponder the part our ancestors played in attempting to 'purge' our country of its original inhabitants. My son's girlfriend lives with us now. Her great grandfather was one of the stolen children. Her mob did not come from this river area, but she is welcome to share this beautiful land with us. Using the milk and coffee analogy, she is much more milk than coffee. But Grant's story helps me understand why her paternal family tenaciously clings to aboriginal culture and traditions. This is an intelligent, forgiving book, well worth a read for a better comprehension of the united Aboriginal mindset and determination to stay put as a race, no matter how diluted the coffee. It makes me wonder, did that Irish great grandfather of mine have a right to pose so smugly in his ancient photograph? And did he have a right, dressed in his fancy waistcoat and expensive suit, one foot firmly planted on a step, to call himself 'landed gentry'? How did he get to claim all that land in country Victoria? Sobering questions Grant's book makes me ask.
As an American, a white American, reading this book, it not only shed light on a people and a struggle and a country I don’t know and their painful, awful history, it all sounded all too familiar. I highly recommend this book, as an eye-opener to the deep struggles of people relegated to the fringes of society, especially to people who would never deign to read such a thing — which is the saddest, most condemning thing about so-called modern, civilized people, unwilling to learn and accept and change. The story here is well-written and easy reading, yet very difficult to read and face.
This book really opened my eyes. I have never paid much attention to issues concerning indigenous Australians. Now I know why. The same white narratives that made Stan Grant feel ashamed put me off from wanting to know more about aboriginal people. I want to thank him for putting into words something that I felt but couldn't explain and what's more, I am now much more curious to learn more about the indigenous experience.
I admired Stan Grant before reading 'Talking To My Country', now I'm grateful to the man for this book and description of his family and aboriginal community's history and hardships. Of the beginning of original inhabitants and new white settlers' inter- marriage and social pressures. It is a fine and bridging attempt to unite all in Australia, and to appreciate even more the deserved success of Stan Grant as a journalist, thinker and communicater. The link to his story telling ancester is of real interest and altogether the book deserves its 4 to 5 stars.
Interesting read, indigenous natives struggling for identity.
