Announcing the winner of the 2022 Dorothy Hewett Award for an Unpublished Manuscript...
UWA Publishing thanks the Copyright Agency for its ongoing support for the Dorothy Hewett Award.
This month we have two beautiful books out that share a common bond: Country. Specifically, the land and people and culture and art that is Balgo Country.
Beyond Borders: Patrick Tjungurrayi celebrates the man who dedicated his life to bringing awareness to Western Desert communities around Balgo. Through his art and activism, dialysis support and other medical supplies are now available to those who need it in remote communities around Australia.
Balgo: Creating Country invites readers and lovers of art to enjoy the exquisite paintings of an art movement that was 40 years in the making. The bright colours and abstraction that are unique to the Warlayirti Artists of Balgo are reproduced in full-colour photographs in this gorgeous large-format book.
Both books have been passionately curated by @johncarty77 who is director of Humanities at the South Australian Museum and a Commissioner for UNESCO. Profits from Beyond Borders and royalties from Balgo go directly to @purplehousedialysis to support remote dialysis treatment.

Spanning four generations, with a focus on the 1960s and 70s, an era of rapid social change and burgeoning Aboriginal rights, 'Where the Fruit Falls' by Karen Wyld is a re-imagining of the epic Australian novel.
Brigid Devlin, a young Aboriginal woman, and her twin daughters navigate a troubled nation of First Peoples, settlers and refugees – all determined to shape a future on stolen land. Leaving the sanctuary of her family’s apple orchard, Brigid sets off with no destination and a willy wagtail for company. As she moves through an ever changing landscape, Brigid unravels family secrets to recover what she’d lost – by facing the past, she finally accepts herself. Her twin daughters continue her journey with their own search for self-acceptance, truth and justice.
