Synopsis:

Eh - how can this be?' Longertalenna breathed. They stared at the pattern of fields and farmsteads and saw no place for them and their kind.


To its first people, Trouwerner was the world. They lived there according to the season and ancient traditions as their ancestors had done for millennia. Then their island was discovered by Europeans. It became 'Van Diemen's Land' and everything changed.


Through the lives of one man and his kin, the human tragedy behind the British colonization of Tasmania is explored in this meticulously researched series of sixteen short stories by British/Australian author S. Pitt.

About the Author: S. PITT is a British/Australian writer of long and short, mainly historical, fiction. She has won several awards for her short stories, most recently for 'Ice-bear' which was short-listed for the Historical Novel Society's 2016 shord story award and included in the anthology 'Distant Echoes.' Her Cli-fi novel, 'The Boy Who Found Salt' was short-listed for the 2020 London Book Fair 'The Write Stuff' competition. Widely travelled, S. Pitt has spent significant parts of her life in remote areas of the world and this is reflected in her work. A constant theme in all her writing is the interplay of historical events, landscape and mythology.
