Description

Ali Cobby Eckermann's poetry collection "Love Dreaming and Other Poems" is a powerful exploration of identity, culture, and belonging. Written from the perspective of an Indigenous Australian woman, these poems bear witness to the ongoing effects of governmental policy and paternalism on regional communities.

The book offers a deeply personal account of Eckermann's search for her family on traditional lands in north-west South Australia, as well as her experiences with the 2007 Northern Territory Emergency Response. Through vivid imagery and lucid language, Eckermann reveals the complexity of internal conflict felt among Aboriginal people today.

This collection is a testament to the poet's determination to share her insights and emotional intelligence with others, offering a nuanced and compassionate portrayal of contemporary Indigenous life.
